Heathers Hens Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hello over the last couple of days i've noticed that Fern's comb is folded over and floppy, she seems alert and well in every other respect and no problems with her poo, and she's laying every day. I've only had the chooks for about 6 weeks so a real novice - would appreciate any advice Thanks Heather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarlettohara Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 If she is well in other respects probably nothing to worry about If her comb is purple tinged then she may be off colour but having said that my ex-bat Mrs Summers had the same thing and vet could find nothing wrong. I think the comb with other symptoms is then a cause for concern, hope she is OK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heathers Hens Posted September 12, 2011 Author Share Posted September 12, 2011 Thank you for your reply, it's great to know that theres always someone with a lot more experience on hand. I'll keep an eye on Fearne but hopefully its just one of those things... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
