3 month old ayam cemani tumors?

[Bull3tz_Chick3nz]

Shes been acting funny pretty much her whole life... slightly slow and moves her head when resting... anyways... i knew tgere was a small bump on her chest but it rapidly started growing and they ended up pretty big... i found 10 of the same size all under the skin all over her... so i decided the humane thing to do was cull her im devastated but i cant watch her suffer...

Anyways... anyone have any thoughts on these?

Just curious if you have access to a poultry vet- I had a barred rock once with something similar on her chest and we would drain it (was non cancerous) she lived over a year or 2 like that after we treated. Winded up living well over 8 years old.

Wondering if it could help you with your cutie.

Do you have pictures of any other tumors? I’m tagging @azygous who has dealt with some viruses that cause tumors in case she has seen anything like this or has advice. What state are you in? If you decide to put her down, I would try to find out what caused this. Most state vets will do a necropsy with tissue studies to identify tumors. Here is a list of state vets to contact:

i haven't seen that type of tumor, but they do appear to be tumors of some kind, not necessarily the squamous skin cancer tumors that are very common on chickens.

That this has shown up on such a young bird and they're so numerous, I would opt for euthanasia, too.
