    Infected comb on silkie rooster

    Hi, my silkie rooster has an infection in the crease of his comb. It is all yellow pus, I have cleaned it out a few times with q tips, and put antiseptic powder on it but it keeps coming back. Any suggestions as to what I can do for it please?

    7week old silkie chickss not eating

    7week old silkie chickss not eating

I pride myself on presenting sparkling white silkies at shows, lot of work but worth it! I am retired, married...
