Chicken Comb

[HayleyCrum]

My roosters comb is bleeding severely. i have read in other places that it is probably frost bite and to stop bleeding uae corn starch. I wasnt able to control his bleeding tonight but got it calmed down enough to where its almost created a clot for the night. he is still bleeding some. I tried putting gauze on him he didnt like that. my biggest concern is if i should be scared hes going to die tonight or soon. it is cold here in TN right now so i assume its frostbite but should i be worried this will kill him

What are you worried about specifically? The bleeding or the frost bite?
How cold is and does his coop have good ventilation to help let out moisture?

Post a pic please.

Best not to put anything on it and leave hands off, especially if it is frostbite.

Comb wounds bleed a lot but usually heal on their own.
