I have a chicken that I have only had for around 7 month(not sure of her age at all) When I got here she was laying around 5 to 6 eggs a week. She got sick from my rooster over doing it and stopped laying for a time. She then go sick form the heat this summer and I saved her from that. She started to lay again at 5 to 6 a week and then stopped and went broody on me for about a month. well that ended around two weeks ago. still is not laying yet.
I am starting to notice that her face looks wrinkled and old looking and she is not all that red in the comb and wattles. I am just wondering what are some of the sign of old age for a chicken. Can they get wrinkly faces and legs(yes hers look like there are wrinkles on her legs.) other than this she looks fine. Will try to get some pictures of her face tomorrow if she will let me.
