HELP! URGENT!

[4chickens4life]

When I saw my chicken this morning (11am I accidentally slept in) I noticed her comb was purple (only the top half.) What does this mean? What should I do? Yesterday she didn’t eat much food which is odd for her and she hasn’t laid an egg in over a week. Please help me. Her energy is good and she doesn’t seem lethargic.

Also, her poop has been very watery/runny and not normal

I dunno, but if its frost bite you can put some vaseline on it and get moisture out of the coop (waterer, poop, make sure there is ventilation etc)

Make sure she has water available-- if the water freezes or gets spilled, chickens get thirsty, and then they don't eat either.

(My suggestion has nothing to do with her comb, just one other reason that a chicken might eat less than usual.)

You could bring her in and there is a chance of saving her frost bite comb other wise it will fall of
