My hen has a respiratory infection and I’ve been treating it with Tigard. This is like day three. I also put vet RX on her comb or wattles her beak and underneath her wings at least two times a day.. every morning when she wakes up, her comb looks great but then by bedtime it’s starting to get purple. Why does it do that? We have plenty of ventilation in the coop where I have her isolated in a crate. Her comb looked better when she was in the shed, isolated with hardly any ventilation at night. Why does it get purple as the day goes on but looks great in the morning?
Does plenty of rest play a part? Because when she wakes up she looks good. Is there anything else I should be doing?
