HELP! Frostbite??

[Raysal]

Hi guys this is my bantam rooster and i went to go check the coop and he was staying still like in the 2nd photo. I was wondering if it was frostbite but the lowest its got here is 50°F and there is no moisture inside. Anyone know why?

Removing extra humidity helps a lot. However unfortunately if you're somewhere cold, it's likely to lose a point or two

The lowest its got these weeks are 50°F i don't know why he got frostbite if it is that.

In Dallas Texas frostbite is highly unlikely.

It looks like perhaps a circulation issue.

And the rest of the days have been 60° to 75°F Today was the only night it dropped around 50°F

I don't think there is much if anything that can be done really.

Is he moving around, eating, drinking and doing chicken things?

Not much just staying still and walking sometimes

Doesn't sound like it is caused by cold to me.

Maybe check for worms. If it gets colder, you could vaseline his comb.

He's beautiful, by the way, so fingers crossed for his recovery!

I will tag a few very knowledgeable folks to see if they have any ideas.

@azygous @Kiki @casportpony can you take a look at this small roo and perhaps help?
