My almost 5 year old SLW Daisy has had this lesion near her beak for a few days. She’s super feisty and I can’t get a good look inside her mouth. I don’t notice an obvious odor but her appetite seems to have decreased a little. So far we have completed 3 out of 5 treatments of metronidazole but I haven’t noticed much of a change. I just ordered some copper sulfate in case she’s not better in a few days, I'm treating for canker but maybe it’s thrush.
Also Daisy is a house chicken, she has avian leukosis and doesn’t do well in the cold so she’s in til spring. No other chickens in the flock have ever had canker, and she’s been inside for almost 2 months now. Any way to tell if this is canker or thrush?
