The comb of my 2 year old rooster has started to turn blue and I am worried. I first noticed it last summer, however it passed but now it’s happening again. Usually it’s the tips of the comb but sometimes the whole back end.
I haven’t noticed anything too unusual, he is still the same kind and active roo he was before. But one thing I have noticed is that he has started sleeping on the floor of the coop, never has he done that before.
He is a hy-line brown rooster, and I know that the life-expectency of hy-line hens isn’t very high. Could he be getting old?
In the picture you can see what I’m talking about!
