This is a wonderful giveaway. I love to read your blog everyday and enjoy it. I do have a question for you about frostbite. My rooster did get his comb frostbit and my question is will this leave his comb scared from it after it is healed? We have him in the machine shed in a pen where it is heated to heal. I have been putting medicine on him also to help the healing process along faster. This is my first year of having chickens let alone in such cold temps. we have been having.
