I suspect he may loose the tips of the comb. He is very "well hung" so he was probably more prone to it that most.

Don't have a rooster just five hens, hen house has 3/4" insulation board walls about 4" straw in the floor have a crock pot on warm full of water, so far they are doing great, just not laying. Also have the ceiling covered with 1/4 bubble wrap insulation.

Go to one of your local “ warming centers” that have been set up, and ask them if you can warm your cock up. Should go over pretty well. 😜

That is BRILLIANT! I was hauling them water 3 times a day. A $3 crock pot from a garage sale would be perfect.

And then you have to build up the courage to back it off.

Roosting outside?
Man! I've had drifts build up under my chicken roost, they didn't have to fly down. Just step off the pole!
I've had a few chickens end up with a "rose" comb after a freeze, but never so cold they wouldn't crow!

I dunno! I'd say if he get that fold, he's done for!

We always trimmed the combs of our roosters so they wouldn’t get frost bit. They don’t look as majestic once their combs are trimmed but they winter better.

Not reading all the Jokey Smurf BS

but you can put Vaseline on them the night before an exceptionally cold night to help with potential frostbite
