Looking for insight potential diagnosis or advice. I have this almost 2 year old hen that started with swelling on her ear lobe. No opening or scab on the lump until a few days after noticing. She's not one of my friendlier girls so I'm not sure how long she's had it. 0 other symptoms that I...
Woke up this morning to feed my girls and my wee lavender pekin has a swollen earlobe.
It is warm to the touch and I have spent the entire day searching for some kind of answer from ear infections to cankers. You name it.
I have cleaned it with some warm water with disinfectant but something...
I noticed this afternoon that my hen, Thundercloud, has a swollen ear lobe. She is still eating and drinking fine. Doesn’t appear to be sensitive to touch, and her ear looks okay as far as I know. The swollen area seems slightly warm (almost same temp) compared to reg lobe- we are in AZ and it’s...
Hi there!
I always get the best help from the byc community, so I wanted to ask for y’all’s help here.
I have a batch of 9 chicks around 5-6 weeks of age and one in particular just started showing swollen earlobes.

A few days ago, I noticed our Delaware was losing feathers. She's a few months over a year so I thought she was having an off first molt and didn't notice anything on a cursory check.
Yesterday, she was lethargic and drinking a lot of water. Upon checking her, I found horrible dark gray scabs...
Howdy, all - searched the threads, couldn't find this one addressed so am throwing it out for the brain trust.
My favorite roo (red sex-link, about three years old) showed up at my office door this AM making distressed sounds. It didn't sound like rales, more like he was crying if that makes...
Hello everyone. I’m Jordan. Andy and I have had a small flock of chickens since October. We started with 5 red sex links but we currently have 4. One of our girls was attacked on 2 different occasions by a hawk. We were able to see her up the first time but she wasn’t as lucky the second attack...
I have a 2 year old Rhode Island Red hen that has had purple/gray swollen wattles and left ear lobe for the past couple of days (discoloration is throughout the wattle, and under the beak - accompanied by heat. Flash from camera doesn't show true color ). We live in South Carolina, so no...
