    ISO hens in central/ Carroll County MD!

    Hen with puffy cheek: When should I be concerned?

    Hi all, Recently I've noticed that our Andalusian hen, Andy (creative, I know), has some puffiness under her eye on the left side of her face. Thus far she doesn't seem to have any other symptoms, she's eating and drinking and going about her business as per usual, but obviously if this is the...
