View attachment 1075779 I have a question also my Buff has a couple spots on View attachment 1075779 her waddle and she keeps breathing heavy I put iodine on the spots what should I do

This happens to me every year during summer. One or two chickens develop those black spot. But its nothing to serious i have never lost a chicken to this and they go away by them self just don't take them off.
