We have a 9 month old Black Jesey Giant...along with 4 other chickens. The jersey giant is acting normal, eating, drinking, laying, playing, but she has lost feathers along her neck in 2 spots on opposing sides of her neck. Its clean, no bugs, no red, no scabs, no blood. What do you think it...

Hi Chimbica88...I cant find ur pics...I am going thru the smae thing u r...I just posted pic on my message...a few above ur entry...let me know where ur pics r and take a look at mine...I have 5 hens and live in NY too.

Is this frostbite, a dry comb, or fowlpox?? What should I do? Is it contagious? If left untreated does it get worse?

I think my hens have a little frostbite on their combs...a few of them have a little crusty brown scabby looking thing on the very tip of the point of their comb...FROSTBITE??? and what do I need to do for that?

What will tomorrow bring...will they get up and act like nothing happened yesterday...or will they continue where they left off??? ugh..why cant the all just get along?
