    Bloody lump on my silkie chicks head!

    Update: the vet said it was a mildly infected scab most likely from the other chick pecking her. They removed the lump cleaned it up and sent her home with antibiotics. They said she’ll be ok!

    Bloody lump on my silkie chicks head!

    In another group I’m in people are saying it’s not a vaulted skull it’s most likely a tumor. Is it still possible she’ll live if it is? She still seems fine and healthy

    Seems like it’s healing up pretty well, hopefully it will stay that way. I’m just not touching it and let it do it’s thing seems the only thing to do really as much as I want to help I think putting a bunch of stuff on it and bathing it will just make it worse at this point

    Bloody lump on my silkie chicks head!

    Its hard to tell because she won’t let me touch it and I don’t want to hurt her. I was barely able to touch it and at least the outside is pretty hard

    Bloody lump on my silkie chicks head!

    She seems pretty normal otherwise maybe a little more mellow than her buddy (who turns out to be a rooster, so not sure if that has anything to do with him being more active and alert) but she’s eating and drinking fine preening her feathers scratching around etc

    2 week old silkie chicks- able to identify gender?

    That’s what I’ve been thinking. One of them has been making little crowing sounds but I haven’t seen which one. But the first chick acts a lot more like a male I think also growing a lot faster than the other chick

    Is it normal for it to get bloody while it’s growing? I separated her from the other chick and there is nothing in the enclosure for her to injure herself on, unless she just plain smacked her head into the side? It keeps healing and then reopening with blood :(
