    HELP CHICKEN DYING?????

    Just wanted to update since you were so kind in responding. I had her in the basement overnight with a fan.

    Very pale comb?

    Maybe. She is only about 6 months I think since she just started to lay. Thank you for helping out.

    Very pale comb?

    I feed them the layer crumble. They are also let out of their run every day too so they can forage. I'm hoping it's just her adjusting to new home and the stress of being low on pecking order. She is laying and seems ok otherwise. I'm so new at this that I'm unsure what to look for.

    Very pale comb?

    Yes she is. What should I do about it? Is it disastrous?

    Very pale comb?

    I can try to get a picture. She is not molting and it is summer so not from frostbite. She does appear to be low on the pecking order.
