Research has shown that hens with larger combs tend to have greater bone density and lay more eggs. Mosquitoes spread the virus, so try planting insect-repelling plants such as mints and marigolds around the run/coop. There are two types of fowl pox – we are talking about the dry type here. Fowlpox is a slow-spreading viral infection.
This comb is not too common. The ‘V’ or devil’s horn is found on a small number of breeds. La Flèche, Sultan, and Crèvecœur are all members of this select little club. A blue comb can indicate circulatory problems, respiratory problems, or coldness. A fire engine red comb that is hot to touch can be indicative of a fever.Only one breed has this comb, the Sicilian Buttercup. The comb looks like a dual version of the single, but the points come full circle forming a crown. Sadly, the Buttercup is in critical need of conservation. Strawberry: Prevention is the best cure. This means your coop should have proper ventilation, moisture reduction in the coop, and no drafts blowing across the birds. A healthy diet full of essential nutrients and a stress-free environment will keep their immune system in tip-top condition, ready to fight off illness. It only affects the non-feathered portions of the bird, and it starts with small gray/white spots or lesions on the comb, face, or wattles. the cushion comb, as seen in the Chantecler and Silkie, is a compact cushion-shaped mass covered with small protuberances, with a shallow transverse groove across it.

The other common problem with combs is frostbite. Make sure you don’t pop blisters, trim edges, etc. When selecting a mate, they want to mate with the strongest, so their offspring have the best chance of survival. This is where the comb and wattles help to signal vitality and strength. I hope this has been informative for you and that you will now look at those combs with a bit more wonder and admiration. If you have hens and roosters with large combs, you should cover them in Vaseline to prevent frostbite during winter.This comb resembles a strawberry. It sits forward on the head and looks like a large cushion comb. Malay and Yokohama birds have this type of comb. Rose:
