Your right, that’s again!

It looks alittle more red in person it’s just weird that it has a comb this early. 😬 thank you!

One is a 8 week old leghorn and a 3 week old Americana mix.

Like I said I'm sure it's not mareks I am very well educated about it and have always had my flock tested for it. I am almost 100% sure it's a niacin deficiency or a possible injury. I am very bio secure and have had a clean flock for many years. Also if it was a tumor or lesion caused by the...

They are in a separate pin but I also have turkeys and chickens. I havent had an incident. I have even taken one of the birds to get tested through the county and no mareks. I have never had a bird with a tumor or that been lame until now.
