Hi! I’m a new chicken mom with a batch of 8 chicks so I rely heavily on these forums and the internet to see about what might be going on, and I couldn’t find anything about what’s going on with my chicks on the internet. They have small scabs right next to their wattle under the side of the beak that are slightly swollen. My Crested Polish had it a lot in the earlier stages of chickhood but it’s gone down. I don’t think it’s Fowlpox as they are not on the wattles and or combs, here are some pictures of what’s going on. Couldn’t get all of them as my chickens love looking around but these are the best I’ve got.
