So I am not sure if my girls are just being silly or not, but my girls seem a bit cut up on their combs and faces...nothing bad , but they have scabs and what not... should I be worried? I did take one in and washed off her face and comb and she seemed fine... I am not sure if they are just running into their chicken wire or what.

If not a barb or other sharp place in their environment, then they could be fighting a lot when you are not around. Do they have adequate space? Fighting is more prevalent in winter months if chooks are confined due to weather.
 
they have plenty of room, and I have never seen them fight, but this is my first winter so I think I will go out and watch them more to make sure that they arent fighting... Thanks!
