Oh my sweet Lulu Lemon, who just came into lay, got her comb nipped. It's a HUGE comb and my suspicion is that my alpha Jersey Giant has had enough of sharing her nest box and took a shot at her. And I don't have any Blue Kote. I put some Vet RX on it and some of the scab came off. I guess a trip to the feed store is in order for tomorrow.
Why can't they just all get along?!?
Here she is last week before she got nipped. Actually, maybe this is two weeks old because her comb is MUCH bigger and redder today. And starting to flop to one side. I just love a floppy comb on a hen.
She's out in the big garden eating snails right now. She's rapidly becoming my new favorite hen.
