Hello, I recently got a Rouen duck to add to the flock. Beautiful bird. But recently he/she has gotten a lump on the side of its head. Does anyone had a clue what this could be?
Hello, my little chicken Coki, a wyandotte has weird lumps on her legs that we thought was bumblefoot, I am asking here to maybe identify what my chicken is going through right now and if we can do something ourselves before going to the vet, (it's pretty far and we're young so we don't have...
Honestly I have absolutely no idea what this is. I’ve had chickens now almost 10 yrs and have never seen this before. It is a huge mushy lump above her vent, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches above. If she was egg bound it has definitely broken but she is acting absolutely fine. Eating her fill, drinking...
Hello!
I'm suspecting that this is a cluster of ingrown feathers, but looking for some confirmation from the more veteran chicken owners. The chick is a Speckled Sussex that's ~20 days old. The lump is a little smaller than a dime and has a little give when pressure is applied but fairly solid...
My 5 week 5 days old gosling has a hard lump on the side of her neck, (she is the one who I had previously posted about with the yolk sack). She is well and healthy, eating and drinking lots but I’m unsure of what this could be, I thought at first it could be a full crop but it seems too high...
Has anyone encountered muscle-like cyst growths around the eyes on a 2-4week old rhode island chicks. No issue found on their eating/drinking. Still active just has the growths. Photo is attached.
How do you treat this?
Thank you in advance for any response.
One of my 2-year-old Australorps has a slight lump ABOVE her crop on the left side of her neck. She seems fine/eats/etc., except that she hasn't laid an egg for 3 days now. She is the alpha, and our power egg producer. She skipped a couple weeks in winter, whereas my other two skipped a couple...
Hello there,
Our 1-year-old Beijing Bantam has two lumps growing in her nostril.
I read some other threads here and try to clean them with Q-tips with Peroxyside, but they are very hard and the moist tips just rubbed a little bit of dirt off the tumors and it didn't feel it will solve the...
My favorite, sweetest 2-year-old Barred Plymouth Rock lady has a growth on her inner right thigh. If anyone has any ideas, I’d love to hear them. If it’s benign and there’s something I can do to help heal, or if it’s lethal and I need to do the most humane thing…
The lump was first noticed...
my new cochin hen has this lump on her foot, it doesn't seem to hurt but I wanna treat it. Anyone know what this is and how to cure it? I put some ballistol on it for now
Thank you! :)
Hi there,
One of my chickens has a weird growth on her wing. She's had it for about a year now and it keeps getting bigger. At first it just looked like a fat lump covered in skin under the feathers, but now it has like bone growing out of it.
She doesn't seem at all bothered by it, she was...
Found a softish lump on the foot of our old hen, Gwen the Hen, a County Fair Blue Ribbon winner. She’s about eight years old and sweet as can be. Any idea what it is and what to do about it?
Thanks very much in advance!
Hi
So this morning when I went to check on my chicks (hatched yesterday)
I came across a pinkish lump in their drinker.
Not sure what it is, and I have searched all over the internet!
Can anyone help me please??
Regards :)
A few days ago, I noticed something, my chixk was losing some neck feathers.
I managed to get a better look yesterday... It's not pink, actually a blochy dark red colour... The skin around it looks dry. Its not very big though... Any ideas on what it is? Will it hurt her? I need to know If i...
Hi! Found this very large solid mass inside egg next to the yolk. Having a difficult time finding out what it is online. It’s solid but bendable. Kind of like a big chunk of fat. Haven’t seen this in any of the other eggs.
Hello Everyone and Happy New Year,
I have a sick 7 year old hen. Suzie in the fall went through a full molt. After she came out of the molt she went broody for the first time which we ended up disrupting since the eggs were not fertile. She was separated from the rest of the flock until she...
Good evening,
One of our chicks has a large, round lump on her chest. I know that chickens have crops, but this seems larger than her sisters and hard.
This is also our baby chick who has random bald spots, so I'm getting worried.
Does it look normal or should we be worried?
A couple weeks ago we adopted three hens from a rescue group. They were rescued from a retiring farmer who was keeping several thousand hens in poor conditions, including insufficient food and water.
About a week after adopting them, one of them started hiding, was lethargic, and had reduced...
Hi there
A few months ago my brown Pekin bantam chicken started making different noises to her usual sounds. Her usual sounds seem to be more high-pitched than usual, almost like she’s whistling/screaming/squeaking. There has been no chan in behaviour, she’s still as lovely as usual and eating...
We have a ten day old male chick with a lump on his throat. We thought it was his crop to start with, but now it is soft and squishy and kind of bothers him when you touch it. I've attached the best photo I could get.
The skin over it has no feathers or fluff and is really thin, and I can see...
