Frostbite?

[jhd9201]

Anyone have any photos of what frostbite would look like? And is it normally only on comb? Any idea what would cause white tip if a few feathers?

Frostbite in chickens usually occurs on the combs, sometimes on the legs. It does not occur on feathers.

I have seen white tips on black-feathered chickens. Upon closer inspection, the white tips were actually pin feathers which were just beginning to open.

Yea, I tried that. I was hoping someone had their own photos. Thank you though.

There was a long thread that showed the long and detailed treatment of some very bad frostbite...but I can't find it.

The black spot is new and doesn't look like typical frostbite. So idk? It has that whitish stuff on tips n front part of his comb. The other roos have started to show similar signs with the white stuff.
