Comb queryComb queryAs I have said before I am new to chicken keeping but so enjoying it. I have two blue marans, Bluebell is darker than Willow. Willow has a red comb whereas Bluebell has a black and red comb which I assumed was normal until I started reading about combs. They both seem very healthy. Should they both be red?
Re: Comb queryHi bluefinch,
I'm sure others will agree, all sounds well. A pale comb is more a sign of ill health, that and the combination of weight loss and lack of energy. As long as there's no sign of of the two combi's above, I'd say you're doing a grand job and all is well. Richard New Member? Get more from the Forum and join in 'Members Chat' - you're very welcome
Re: Comb queryThank you Richard. That's reassuring.
