Do chicken combs droop when they are sick?

No, drooping combs are not necessarily an indication of illness in chickens. While a droopy comb can sometimes be a symptom of illness or adverse environmental conditions, it's not a reliable indicator on its own. Many healthy chickens may also have droopy combs due to various factors such as age, genetics, breed characteristics, heat stress, or natural variations. To accurately determine if a chicken is sick, it's essential to observe other clinical signs, overall behavior, and consult a veterinarian for a proper diagnosis if needed.
