Update:
It's been 4 days, she has been isolated and cleaned treated everyday with vetericyn plus spray and ointment. The "blisters" have formed on her wattle now. Her ears flaps are super large and she is definitely napping more than normal (expected if she's in pain or healing). Still eating and drinking, no sign of any other symptoms. No other birds showing symptoms. Today they seemed to be bothering her more than they have previously, scratching at them etc. Called a vet friend that said it was okay to use TINY amounts of hydrocortisone mixed with a larger amount of coconut oil, but to not eat the eggs she may make for a few weeks. Mixed 1:5 by weight and applied some. She seems to be more energetic after that. Still no clue what could be going on. Chemical burns or plant toxins?
