Hen is blue!

[chicken keeper 123]

We found our hens face comb and wattles blue today. She is eating. And acting normal. After she went outside to her coop she turned a dark reddish color but around sunset she turned purple agian. She is inside with me. Eating and acting normal. What can I do for her? I’m trying to use a proneb compressor nebulizer on her right now is that good?

Thank you! I can only think of choking or blood clots, but you said she's fine...

Yep she is in my lap now. She is even struggling to leave. What could it be?

Sorry I am typing with one hand so I’m trying to shorten stuff I wanted to say she is still strong. No sick chicken attitude at all

Ok! That's great! Is she cold?

How old is she? Has she been laying eggs recently? Is she molting? The color change may be from a respiratory issue or a heart problem. Has she had breathing issues in the past? I would offer electrolytes in her water or give 2 ml of Poultry NutriDrench orally, and make sure that she is drinking.
