#FotoVorschlag: Federleicht // Light as a feather

Meine #Hühner werden aktuell um viele #Federn erleichtert, sie #mausern gerade, was das Zeug hält, und die beiden alten #Hennen sehen ganz gerupft aus (wächst aber jetzt alles schön nach, wie man sieht). Dazu Wind und Regen und seit heute ist auch noch Stallpflicht angesagt wegen der Vogelgrippe. Die Hühnis haben es gerade echt nicht (feder)leicht.

My #chickens are a lot lighter now, as they're losing so many #feathers. They're in the middle of #moulting and especially the two older #hens look a bit scruffy (their feathers are growing back nicely though, as you can see). There's also rain and wind and as of today, they have to stay cooped up due to avian flu. Apologies for the pity party, I just wanted to ... shed some light on the daily struggles of our feathery friends. 😋

Interior of a well-used chicken coop, featuring two wooden beams used for perching. The floor is covered in litter and a thick layer of feathers, indicating that the chickens are currently moulting.

A light-brown and white hen named Henna, appearing slightly scruffy due to moulting, stands in an outdoor chicken enclosure. There's a new patch of feathers growing on the wing that's facing the camera. The coop floor is covered with wood shavings, and the hen is positioned near a dark plate filled with fruit and vegetable scraps, including carrot peels and apple and pear cores. The enclosure is surrounded by wire mesh, with a grassy area visible in the background.

Rear view of a white and light-brown hen in an outdoor chicken enclosure, showcasing new feather growth on its back and tail area after moulting. Henna, that's the name of the hen, stands on wood shavings, with a plastic ring visible on one feathered leg. The enclosure is surrounded by wire mesh fencing, and another hen is partially visible in the background

A light-coloured hen named Stella with a prominent red comb stands in an outdoor chicken enclosure. There are new feathers growing around the beak. The hen has a full, rounded body with soft, pale feathers, and its feathered legs show some blue discolouration due to a spray I use to mask pecking injuries. The enclosure floor is covered with wood shavings, and other hens are partially visible in the background. The area is surrounded by wire mesh fencing, with a grassy field visible beyond.

Shandy thinks they are onto something but can they convince their peers in the maths department office?

A wonderful portrayal of Shandy the Adama by Moult

I've been wanting to develop their character and thought they could be a mathematician.

I harvested about a 1/3 of the #lowtunnel today. Need to decide what to do with the rest of what's in there before the #PolarVortex hits! 😤

Also, got the first of the #eggs! I think the #moult is over, but I'm worried the weather will cause the #hens to stop laying again? 🤔

Dear Friends of #Misskey, #mystery

and da-da-da :netkitty:

As we know you can not #krill a #wer-lobster. They just #moult.

Somehow in a #strange #sequence of events I haz:

#Become a leg end in my own #lunch #box
Added #Firefox relay to my #emails
Joined some #characters even more dubious, #septical #spectres of the deep C’s #ghosties
My only #hope is they will be #protecting mini me from pirates, bad goats and #Texans

In other words. In ways #beyond my level of #comprehension, I am able to post up to 65000 words (my goat gott, that is almost as much as a #micro-bot can manage). I am running a securish #penguin, with many #wonderful GNU programs. Soon I while be lost again, #wandering the hi ways and bye the ways …

black and white photograph in landscape format, white background, the photo is almost filled by the chelicera of a large hairy tarantula and the surrounding parts of the legs. (actually, however, it is only the exoskeleton of a tarantula that was shed during molting).
