    Bluish/purplish comb - cause for concern?

I looked through some photos from a few days ago (more specifically the 12th) and she had a bluish comb then too, I just didn’t notice it. It looks like it...

    My Rooster Is Succumbing to Heart Failure

    A couple weeks back, I posted about my 2.5 y/o bantam salmon faverolle roo, Oz, who had been vaguely "off." I'd since taken him to the vet, who concluded he had a heart murmur and would likely deteriorate over time. As a hail mary, I tried antibiotics, since I know some heart issues can be...

    Oral Cankers?

    hi everyone! I’m posting for a friend of mine and she has a rooster that has been down. His comb is really really blue and he won’t eat or drink and just sits.
