What is wrong with her comb and eyes??!

Is a chicken a pullet til 1 year?

Our Orginal 4 are 1 yr in April
the other 3 are 1 year in July

I just call the big ones the "big ones" and the others "the babies"

thank goodness.

Is there anything I can do to make her comb less dry? They all seem to have pretty flakey combs. I thought coconut oil, but I don't have any.

Avocado oil may help, do you have any on hand?

Hmmm well, when your chickens turn 1 they will be 19 in human years!
so yes I think they are still pullets until they turn one

Probably that they just ate a fat dinner!
You are most likely feeling the crop, and if you lightly massage it you can feel pellets or food

Oh! Shes full. Makes sense, I was feeding the flock some solider fly larvae!

Coming from someone who dealt with fowlpox I had chickens look something like that thought they were just fighting thought nothing much and it got worse and 2 of them got wet fowlpox and died and I blame my self for not vaccinating them earlier so if you can buy them the fowlpox vaccine as quick as possible

I'm getting really mixed answers.

@HawaiiCoyote

Should I be worried or is it really ok?
