I'm sorry, it's an Amarela chicken.

Does anyone have this chicken breed or know where I could get some?

Thank you all for checking this out. I've bailed for a while because I finally put this guy down & hated it. The inside of the lump was bubbly tissue, like fatty globules. I inspected him more closely and found a few more lumps on his body. Since mostly roosters were affected, and 2 hens with...

Here are 2 pictures. The large swelling in the first picture flops when he runs. It's very firm, not like it's filled with liquid. E

If this helps, the black part is scabby looking. And, the lump on the rooster's neck is actually larger, like 2 ping pong balls.

One of my roosters developed a black spot on his neck by his head, and on the other side of his face, just in front of his eye. The skin around them looked like it ended at the edge of the black area, i.e. it rolled at the edge. They both swelled up, but the one on his neck is now the size of a...

Thank you! The bleeding has stopped. The chick is weak & sleepy, but I dipped it's beak into sweetened water. However, I used honey rather than suger since it has natural antibiotic properties. Is that OK? I haven't read anything saying that honey is bad for chickens. It's sleeping now, and I...

I've browsed your threads in the past for answers to my problems. Now, I'm hooked and have more questions and stories to share. I got my first chickens, straight run of 4 black copper marans and a straight run of 4 lavender orpingtons. As luck would have it, I got 1 bc marans hen & 3 roosters...
