Hi all, looking for a bit of insight here. I have a small flock of six mixed breed chickens. I have noticed that the Black Australorps and Speckled Sussex (some, not all) have kind of pale looking combs with some having minor scabs and some having a bit of white discoloration.
All the girls seems to be acting totally fine (active) as well as eating and drinking normally despite their somewhat rough looking combs. I live in Massachusetts and we had some cold days this winter. I do also put down First Saturday Lime in the coop (white discoloration?). They do not seem to have any other health concerns and I have checked for signs of any lice or mites, of which there are none (even checked them with a magnifying loop).
They are just about a year old. Does this look normal? Appreciate the thoughts, thank you.
