I'm sad to report that our girl just passed away in her sleep. Thank you all for your help and support. Julie

That's interesting, the owner is a deputy sheriff... Must tread lightly

Talked to the owners, they told me it was my problem because "thats what cats do". I'm getting a live animal trap from a friend;)

Upon returning home from vacation we verified several of our chickens had been killed by the neighbor's cat. Today as I was clean off the porch, I found my dog licking a chicken. I yelled thinking he was killing it. By the time I got there I saw it was the one bird that was missing but we did...

Yes, I meant groups like this. Sorry about the confusion. I would also like everyone to know that my chicken is almost back to normal!!!! Thank you all for your help!

Thanks again for all the info. Do you know any wbsights/ forums for goats that are like this one?

Update: I opened the ear canal up and some clear fluid came out. I then went a little further down and Lacerated the hard mass. More fluid followed. I cleaned everything with Betadine solution and topped it off with topical anabiotic. I also gave her another shot of antibiotics.

Here is another pick. I think I'm going to have to do surgery to remove the lump. I would apreceate any other advice you might have

My girl has a hard lump in her ear. It does not seem to bother her but it's getting bigger. I'm treating her with a broad spectrum antibiotic but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. Any advice would be appreciated.
