Chirping
Hi all,
My Wyandotte has been banished from the cool girl club for a few days again, and yesterday I noticed a greenish ear lobe and some scratches around there. After googling I thought it was probably bruised from getting bullied (I saw the flock queen jump on her the other day, but she escaped) but now I’m wondering if it’s an infection?
What do you think? I don’t seem to get a foul smell from her head, but she was the sicker chick I had with rales from Hilltop.
She’s about 10 months now, started laying late but has been a consistent layer including today.
I have sulfa drugs that helped her recover as a chick and some fish antibiotics handy but our dog/tortoise vet doesn’t see chickens.
Help?
