First time chicken raiser. Have Aquila; very little knowledge to be found on internet. Watching videos on "inspecting your chicken" and folk are talking "red combs, red wattles only". Issue is three of my six birds have gray combs. All seem very healthy, have a 15' x 5' run and 6' x 5' hemped coop ... I am posting because three have had "not red" combs from the moment the mini-combs could be seen progressing. Aquila owners, not "best guessers", preferred as responders, please. Unless you can relay information from Aquila owners who do NOT post to backyardchickens.

Maybe you could contact Freedom Rangers as they breed Aquila’s and when I contacted them I got a speedy reply. I just ordered 15 straight run from them
