    Beekissed.....thank you thank you for this thread. I originally got on this thread because I have a couple hens with pale combs, sneezing, and prolonged molts. This morning they have ACV back in their water and garlic in their morning treats. Don't know why I stopped the ACV....busy work...

    This is our little "L'eggs". She has the most gigantic unscathed comb on her petite Leghorn head. It flops up and down while she hunts for treats. She's 11 mos old and lays like a machine!

I needed mine right away because I have a new hen with a respiratory infection and my only option to...
