    Pale Combs

    Posting an updated picture for anyone who may come to this thread with a similar question someday. I confirm with others that it is frostbite. Feel terrible that it happened but they had access to warm shelter at all times. Looks like comb is turning more black and im assuming will fall off soon.

    Pale Combs

    I researched some other pictures and compared to mine and yes I do believe this is the issue! I will keep an eye for recovery and add some updated pictures in the coming weeks. Thank you! This has been an odd winter for us, hopefully for the ladies sake the temperatures remain high so they can heal.

    Pale Combs

    This is super helpful, thank you! I will stop and get them some mealworms tomorrow. They do not free range this time of year so they are getting all bagged feed and then our scraps. Our egghas dropped slightly the past couple days. We will keep a close eye.

    Pale Combs

    I just went out to water our ladies and noticed our cinnamon queens combs are going pale. The tips of our barred rocks are also a bit pale. I checked the one that would let me pick it up for lice/mites and no signs of infestation. We are in NW illinois and had big temperature swings. Last week...
