| | Plumages and Molts |
 | | When a new molt and plumage are discovered, the procedure to name it is to equate one of the plumages with later basic plumages and to compare it with basic plumages in related species to determine which is the additional supplemental plumage. | | | After the juvenal plumage, they molt from basic to basic, repeated as the only plumage. | | | molt to basic, repeated for the life of the bird. |

| | The MOLT team aim for the MOLT to enhance the teaching and learning experience of both educators and learners. | | | You can also get the best out of the MOLT by being aware of the structure of the MOLT and the types of relationships we have with others. | | | Authors will be named, will state their specific intention for inclusion of the material and will have the opportunity to be consulted over consequent proposed changes to the MOLT (which may impact upon their material). |

| | The details of effective molting guides that do not subject the hens to unnecessary stress are given on the last two pages for your use or for adaption into your program. | | | Before any decision can be made with any degree of accuracy, one needs to understand what natural molting is and how to adapt it for effective flock management. | | | Much depends upon their physical condition and the environmental temperatures at the time of the molt. |

| | But relax, the only thing that can "force" a crab to molt sooner than it would regularly is the loss of a limb or other necessary appendage. | | | Sometimes, when you change the substrate to something more "crab-friendly," it will stimulate the crabs to molt. | | | The FAQ page contains this info and more about digging crabs, and explains what to do about certain behavior. |

| | A Brief Look at Avian Molt |
| | In their words, "We believe it is greatly desirable to have a system available whereby variations in that patterns of plumage succession may be described, compared and contrasted among different groups of birds, whether or not the physiological mechanisms have been worked out for the groups in question" (Humphrey and Parkes 1959). | | | For example these three molts have been renamed prejuvenal, first prebasic, and second (or third, etc.) prebasic molts, respectively. | | | One reason for this shift was the hypothesis that the basic plumage of birds (usually more drab and lacking contrast) more closely resembles that of ancient birds from which our current species are descended (Humphrey and Parks 1959). |

| | Molting |
| | Molting occurs in regular patterns over a bird's body. | | | Why should synchronous molters have evolved this seemingly risky process instead of undergoing a gradual molt like most birds? | | | Molting in most passerines takes from 5 to 12 weeks, but some raptors may require two years or more to completely replace their feathers. |

| | The length and incidence of a molt are influenced considerably by the bird's body weight, physical condition and environmental conditions such as nutrition and management. | | | The general condition of a good layer will reflect health and vitality. | | | The rate of lay for some hens may not be affected, but their molting time is longer. |

| | Lobster Molt |
| | One theory is that the lack of natural substrate deprives them of edges to use to leverage the shell off. | | | Another, more interesting theory is that the animal tries to postpone molting in the trap because molting would leave it vulnerable to attack by other inhabitants in the trap. | | | This may sound far fetched until you learn about the role of environment and chemical signals involved in molting and mating (two activities that are usually linked) and why being stuck in a trap is probably not percieved by the animal as the right place to conduct either of these activities. |
