purple waddle

What could be the cause of this purple and swollen wattle on our buff Orpington hen? She is 4 years old this Spring. We have not seen any other symptoms. I did see a gray bump on her neck between the wattles in the morning, but I couldn’t do anything at that moment with her. I went this...

Hi all. I have a friend and am posting this for her. She recently had a hen died which we think was from old age. Now, she has a rooster that is making a choking noice. She said she hasnt seen him eating or drinking. She also said his comb and waddle are turning purple. Any ideas? Thanks!
