Hi there!
A d’uccle hen who has been going through her 18months moult has this purple comb. I’ve read that in some hens the moulting can cause the comb to change colour. She doesn’t seem to have other symptoms right now apart from the occasional sneeze and red around her eye (this could be normal). Has anyone any suggestions? Does she need a vet?

Ok thanks, she’s running around and eating well, high protein food for molting. She’s doing a gradual whole body molt. She looks grumpy as I’m trying to take her picture!
