Can't find help

Can you post some more pictures? Are you positive that she has no respiratory symptoms? Is she still with the other chicks? I would probably separate her if you haven't. Is the awelling around the eye firm or soft? Was she vaccinated for Mareks disease? Mareks can cause tumors anywhere in the body, inside or out. Sorry for all of the questions, but this seems to be a strange case. I would wonder if the growths were not containing pus. You can try to lance one of those and then squeeze to try and express what is inside. Pus or hardened yellow pus could come out, or blood if it is a cyst or tumor.

Thank you so much for your interest. I have separated her. The growths are firm. Her left eye is still watering a bit. She is breathing normal, eating fine, active just like all the other chicks. We tried a triple antibiotic and the Blue Lotion and nothing changed. We put together a mixture of honey, coconut oil, garlic and lemon juice pulverized it and added Vaseline to bind the potion. We have been applying that for 3 days and today we noticed the first one over the left eye seems to be raised like it is getting ready fall off. Left side by the beak is no longer concaved and somewhat raised which I think could be a good sign. The black ring around her left eye is gone and all this has happened in the last three days since our homemade potion. Also, she loves the taste of it as well so we let her have a couple of pecks of the potion which she gobbles down. So she is getting it topically and internally. She is the sweetest little thing, She follows me around the yard and answers to her name. I never thought I would ever get attached to a chicken.
 
Success! Ruth is doing so much better. I took lemon juice, garlic, coconut oil, and garlic. Pureed it and then added some Vaseline to form a paste. Ruth loves the taste. After one week of topically applying and ingesting the potion. The largest growth by her beak dropped off and the one above her eye is raised. The one on the other side has not gotten any larger. I am thrilled. I probably won't have to quarantine after this weekend. Thanks so much for your input.
 
I'm so glad she is doing better!
