Spots on Rooster Combs

[bargain]

Looks like the result of some fighting going on for king of the hill...

My roosters reached maturity during the winter and their combs were uniformly colored. Then they started fighting and their combs started looking like the ones pictured (no illnesses observed in any of my split flocks, no lethargy, etc). My vote is with the others who said it is probably due to fights over who is top roo.

I have a few spots on my roos' combs from time to time. I think, as others have stated, they are just small scabs from squabbles and will heal and drop off. No chance of frostbite here, we're in Florida (although it has been pretty cold here lately).

i do see a very small amount of frost bite on one of the back points of the second roo, but that sure looks like fighting to me. and the winner is ....number 2?
