It’s kind of hard to see in the pics. But my Brahma rooster comb is a faint black. Any ideas what this could be?

Does it ever pink up during parts of the day? Combs can darken if there is s heart or breathing problem when they are not getting enough oxygen. Sometimes temperature has some effect on combs. How is he acting. How old is he? Could he be dehydrated? I would be offering water and some Poultry NutriDrench or electrolytes just in case.
 
He is acting normal. I’m not sure if he could be dehydrated or not as they have water :( He’s fairly young, only about 7 months old
 
I would try to get him drinking in the morning by holding a cup up to his beak or try to add a lot of water to a small bowl of chicken feed. Electrolytes, Gatorade, or Poultry NutriDrench are good.
I will definitely try this!
