comb

Two of my chickens had a altercation that led to one of them in a torn comb. The base of her comb is separated from her head like maybe 3/4s of an inch. The comb looks fine just part of it is not connected to her head anymore. I separated her obviously and stopped the bleeding. She’s sleeping...

My easter egger chickens has a very small comb and blandish color compared to my other chicken (completely normal ). I heard its a sign of illness but she is the most lively and dominate so i dont knows whats wrong? I would send a picture the the quailty would be terrible so im putting a stock...

This pullet was guessed to be a Cuckoo Marans in another thread because of her leg coloring. I noticed this morning that her single comb appears to be split at the top. Is this still considered a single comb growth?

I have 5 chickens. 2 Rhode island reds, 2 golden comets and an Easter egger. The two reds and one comet produce an egg everyday for about 3-4 weeks now. The last golden, has not stated laying any eggs and her comb has not grown out. Any thought on why the one golden comet is far behind the...

Lemon, our beloved pet chicken, has been sick for over 8 weeks. I've tried nearly everything, but she continues to decline. No bird vets available in the area, so I really need your help! Picture of healthy Lemon (scroll down for pictures of sick Lemon) Main problem: Slow crop / crop...

I have a chicken with a kind of floppy comb that is slightly collapsed/folded in the front. I’m trying to figure out if I should be concerned, or if this is normal? All my other chickens combs stick straight up, which is the source of my concern. (Edit: I read online that it could be worms so I...

Hello, I woke up this morning and noticed that my hen has developed blisters overnight. They only seem to be on her comb. They’re small and yellowish but look grey from a distance. Does anyone know what these are? This is the second time she’s had them except it seems worse this time. Last time...

Approximately 12 wk old Australorp chicks all with different comb starts... why? and Do I have more roosters then I think?!

Just noticed one of my RIR’s comb looking strange. She seems to have some dark spots on her comb which weren’t there previously. They do look a little bit darker and more defined in person. Any idea what this could be? Or am I totally overthinking it and it’s completely normal 😂

Can someone help me figure out if my leghorn is a hen or Rooster. This bird is a lot bigger than the other leghorn we have that we got the same time and supposed to be same age. They should be about 11-12 weeks.

What gender are these silkies, and this buff Orpington? This buff has a larger comb and waddles than the other two that came with him. About 16 weeks old (all of them).

Hello. We have 8 chickens in total. 3 of them are fully grown almost 2 years old, and 5 are around 3 months. 3 of them are roosters, which we are working on finding homes for. One of the 3 month old roosters i am very worried about. His comb appears to be bleeding and he is just sleeping under...

Hey all, we just purchased 3 older chicks to our flock. I believe they are all around the 4-5 week mark. We purchased the red/brown one with patterned feathers hoping that he is a cockerel, and the black and buff ones might be pullets — though the slight red waddles on that black one have me...

I have a few pullets, most of them nearly 9 months of age. Some of them have large dark red combs and wattles. My blue Australorp, my welsummer pullets and Gold Laced Barnavelder have nice combs. When will they still start laying? Please see images below.

I hope this is the right place to post this! So, two of my EE chicks have this different looking comb compared to the others. Most of the chicks have pea combs but some are singles. Both of the chicks with this odd looking comb have small crests, but none of the others do. I got a picture of...

I have three 11 week old pullets. 1 black Australorp and 2 barred rocks. They have pretty short combs and they aren’t really red but more on the light pink side. They also look kind of dry. This is my first time having chickens so I just want to make sure they are alright.

25 days ago I was given 6 BLRW hatching eggs from a friend who wanted to see if the eggs were fertile,5/6 eggs were fertile. Four of the chicks hatched yesterday(day 24), but one of them has a single comb, is this normal? He had all the BLRW's in their separate breeding pen and all of them have...
