Pale face need help working out what is wrong

[katiec11]

Hey guys- my girl Sylvia seams to have a very pale face, it's almost yellowish and her comb is dry. it's been like it for a little while- we have had a small mite outbreak which we seam to have gotten on top of... I haven't noticed her laying either which adds more to my concern, we do work most of the day so she could be and its going unnoticed.
She is a Pekin Bantam, about 2years old.

Any advice will be great!!
Thanks Katie

Is she molting at the moment?

 

[katiec11]

No, not Molting at the moment she went through it a few months ago

Has she layed since her molt

 

[katiec11]

Not that we noticed so pretty sure she hasn't

 

[AustralorpsAU]

I can't say for sure but her molt might have been pretty hard on her and she is still recovering! What feed does she get?

 

[katiec11]

Oh poor thing they get a premium feed which has a bit of everything in it- as well as fresh veggies and meal worms daily.

She sounds like she is getting the correct protein! I can't really help anymore sorry

Look up fatty liver syndrome....The yellowing is a bit concerning for sure....

Best of luck....
