Waddle Is Purple

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 

Hi my buff orpingtons comb is dark purple, her waddle and cheeks are the regular color red. Her comb changed to this color about 2 days ago. Is there anything wrong with her?

The color probably means the comb isn't getting enough oxygen, which could have several causes.  We'd need more information to make a decent guess.  You could answer these questions:  http://www.backyardchickens.com/t/3569/have-an-emergency-disease-please-read-first

 

Also tell us whether you've checked for mites / lice, whether she's been wormed, and with what.
