Chantelle Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 im confused I have 4 pekins I got them pretty much 2 months ago now and was told they were about 12 weeks although 2 are a lot bigger that the others. im hoping its just them becoming mature as I know their comb wattles and round their eyes and ears are usually pale flesh coloured and these turn red when they are coming to pol but they are going red then turning back pale some days the 2 older ones will be red then before your eyes they go practically white is this normal or do I need help? ive tried to google it but cant find anything at all just need some reasureing that my girls are ok, any advice or answers are welcomed x nugget, lola, fat flo, and tilly x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egghead68 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 They can go red temporarily when they are stressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chantelle Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 it looks like their trying to sort out a pecking order, they have all just got on well since we had them but the last few days we have noticed a few scuffles do you think that could be whats causing them to stress then as their treated like royalty lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
