For his frostbitten comb, I would not massage or handle it, but you can use Vetericyn or a similar wound spray on it twice a day, as long as he is inside. Also, aspirin 325 mg for each 6 ounces of water can be given for pain.

The hens, along witht the healthy but skittish cockerel Sanderson
Alexander still stood unmoved. He even fell over, wings spread out as a hen crashed into him.
Is he eating? Yes. He literally chowed down the food I gave him after seperation. Yogurt with nutri-drench and other chicken friendly-veggies works quite well for a sick lil guy.
Is his comb a bright healthy red? No, the tips are dark.
Sluggish? Yes, but he still has a level of spunk that gives me hope. His tail and wings are droopy though.
How old is he?Slightly ruffled and hunched up when I saw him out the window.
