Spots on Comb

[TheGazaStripper]

These spots have been there for a few weeks at least on my Buff Oprington (Buff the Stuff) , is it anything I need to be concerned with?

It may be insect bites or pecks. It doesn't look like fowl pox exactly, but possible. Fowl pox is a virus carried by mosquitoes. Have you seen othe birds pecking her?

I saw one of the other hens grab her by the comb the other day very aggressively. Other than this one instance I haven't seen any picking on her.

A couple of mine had these spots for years - I'm pretty sure it was them just getting pecked at. Wouldn't worry at this point!

Thanks Cacique, I'll just keep watching it.
