Hey all,
I've got a lethargic chicken, standing around by herself with her eyes closed. Brought her in to get a better look, her crop felt pretty hard and I thought maybe it was impacted so I have a couple drops of vegetable oil and massaged it. While sitting here holding her I can hear a wheezy loud breathing sound and upon inspection, it looks like maybe a nostril might be blocked? She seems to have a raised bump up above it close to her comb (see pic). What do you think and what can I do? Any other thoughts if something else may be going on? FYI she's approx 5-6 months old.
