Chicken Lump?

[vanmarty]

I have 8 chickens and one of my barred rocks just recently grew this bump on her eye. I’m not sure what it is or how to treat it?

What does it feel like? Is it hard or squishy?

It is squishy!

It looks like it could be a cyst. Do you think that it might be from a peck wound that has formed an abscess.

That could definitely be it, thank you so much!

You could get some help, and wrap her in a towel like a burrito. Disinfect the bump and lance it to see if you can squeeze any pus out of it.

Let us know what happens or if the bump gets bigger.
