legend21 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Hello All One of my ex batts was sitting on her own today the way they do when they are laying a softee, when I looked closely her comp looks a bit strange, one of the tips is going black as if it has worn away and the next little tip is cream the rest of the comb is nice and red. Im not sure if it is just she is getting older or the sign of something else Any comments would be appreciated thank you Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 She has probably been pecked at some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francesca88 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Could it be frostbite? http://backtobasicliving.com/blog/tag/comb-frost-bite/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Matilda had a black spot on her comb in October time and I just assumed it came from a peck, it shrank but is still there if you look ... doesn't seem to bother her so I've just left it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legend21 Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 it is at the tip of the comb, and looks like the red tip has gone and a little bone or what would be there sinew? standing up, could be frostbite, I will watch to see if there is any changes in it thanks J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
