please help me my roosters comb turned purple and over 2 days it fell completely over and his breed doesnt do that he's a bantam cochin calico and he started to lose weight and barely wants to eat or drink, his beak is pale in color and his wattle and comb has shrunk ALOT I mean alot, and he is lethargic doesnt want to move much he just wants to sleep, i thought he was anemic because we found mites in the run of the coop and we treated the ground and him with diatomaceous earth and his 1 hen he is with, i put poultry cell rooster booster in his water to get his blood levels up and it isnt helping, his crop is rock hard but it only goes down a slight bit overnight so does he have impacted crop? His eyes arnt swollen or running his nose isnt running and every else seems fine except for his fecal, its green and watery and it switches from that to orange or light light brown foamy runny, I'm not sure what's wrong but please help.
 
I would not make your chicken vomit. Right now you don’t know exactly what is wrong, and that can cause him to choke on crop contents and die. Can you post any pictures? Where are you located, state or country? Can you try to give him water in a scoop, lid, or cup up to his beak? The Poultry Cell can be given orally a few drops at a time up to 1 ml daily. That will get to his blood faster. Has he eaten recently? What do you feed?

I would chill some coconut oil, about a spoonfull, and cut it into small pieces, and let him peck those. Then massage his crop in a downward motion several times a day. His crop may be impacted if it is hard. A dark comb can be a sign of dehydration of heart failure. A flopped over comb could be that, but it can be normal in large comb birds. Does he have any respiratory symptoms or a gurgling sound in his throat?
