Hi all,
Maybe you folks can help. I have 10 hens, all are doing well but one of my leghorns is really not looking good. Started about a month ago, she went into a full molt. About that time her once thick, red comb started to slowly shrivel up, almost like she was dehydrated. It has been getting worse, and now her comb is small, pinkish white, and limp. She eats along with everyone else, and her feathers are still skimpy.
It is not frostbite, and there is plenty of water available. She is 18 months old, and until now has been fit as a fiddle. Any ideas on what I should do?
Thanks!
