j00lz_12366 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 (edited) Hi I'm slightly worried about Ada-her wings are red-but not as red as they look on these pics. They dont appear sore-there are dark patches on them but they are where new feathers are coming through-her feathers are quite dark. She is bottom chickan and as such does get shouted at and also abit of a peck occasionally, but I've never seen anything nasty. I have started to put anti-peck spray on just incase. She doesnt appear to be at all uncomfy and is as active and flappy as she ever was thanks for any ideas Edited June 19, 2011 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 It could just be the effect of being exposed to the fresh air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j00lz_12366 Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 Ok, thanks for that-i cant see the others wings as much as i can see Ada's so I wasnt sure if i should be worried..like I said she seems fine..but both her and Betty are taking their time to feather up-I can see the bald patches are getting smaller so that's the main thing i suppose thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Just looks like the normal reddening up of exbatts skin to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j00lz_12366 Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 Thanks..thats put my mind at rest...with her being the bottom in line i'm alway on the lookout for any excessive bossiness and was worried maybe it was a prob..i can relax again now.. Thanks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyhole kate Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 My little frizzle has exactly the same on her wings she's refeathering and I had her at the vets today totally unrelated to this and he didnt bat an eye so |I have taken it as normal I thought it might be due to increased blood to the area as new feathers develop but what do I know I am probably just rambling away to myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j00lz_12366 Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 thanks for passing that on..i'm guessing that seeing as everyone whos commented on this has said its normal, it probably is... am very glad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
