I noticed this afternoon that all my pullets have small abrasions on their combs. They are 9 week old Easter Eggers so technically their combs having come in. I’m new to chicken raising and not sure if it is common for small sores, skin breakage, minor bleeding or irritation is common when combs start to come in or if it’s from something else.
Another thought is it could possibly be their food container becoming to small for their beaks as it’s the same one I’ve used since they were 2 weeks old. Maybe they are rubbing their combs or top of beaks to much on the feeders planet openings when eating.
Added photos of three of my girls. Any other insight, suggestions or thoughts are welcome.
