i asked this the other day but didn’t get any responses. Anyone seen anything like this in their chicks? We have her quarantined in case it is something contagious. Thanks for the help!

Yes, I’m holding her in a glove. I’m hoping it’s just a growth and not a disease. It’s our first time raising meat birds so I wanted to make sure it’s not anything contagious before I put her back with the other chicks.

What in the heck IS that? How far does it go? Is it all over her? I've never seen anything like that. Is it solid? Spongy? Yikes!

I’d call where you bought them from , maybe they’ll replace it? I wouldn’t put her back in , lots of eye infections are contagious... I hope someone can help you out

The purple and yellow wrapped around the bird is a GLOVE. He's asking about the growth over the eye.

What do you recommend doing with her? I hate to see it suffer and have been considering putting her down:(
