🐔 Chicken Fact of the Day Most people think a chicken’s comb is just there to make them look fancy, but it’s actually a built-in air conditioner 🌡️ That bright red thing on top of their head helps regulate body temperature, can give clues about their health, and even tells you a little about their place in the pecking order. A bright red comb? Usually a good sign your hen is healthy and laying eggs🥚A pale comb? It could mean stress, illness, parasites, or that she’s taking a break from laying.
