I have a question about my 6 mo old Barnavelder. This morning I noticed that her legs and feet seem to have a redness to them that I’ve never noticed before (am I clueless? Has it always been this way?) and her comb has the ever-so-slightest dark purple edges to a few tips. It hasn’t been cold enough here for frostbite - I live in SoCal where it’s been around 40-45 degrees at night for the past week or two.
Could there be an illness I should be looking for? Thanks in advance

So I originally posted this thread on 12/16/22 and here I am attempting to get further answers. Maybe the answers will be the same. Yesterday I went out and noticed my girl’s wattles have more dark spots than before so I’m asking a second time if those more experienced than me can continue to verify that this isn’t a disease coming on. If it’s bullying I need to figure out who is doing it. More pucks of her comb for reference.

Yes she’s active, the most skittish of the ladies, hard to catch. I honestly don’t see her eating but that’s probably only because when I let them out in the morning and then go inside to get ready for work. I know she’s not lowest in the pecking order either, based on her roosting location. I appreciate the feedback.
