I have an 8 month old Golden laced Wyandotte that has a swollen earlobe and wattles. Just noticed today but can't be very old as we are with them most days. Looks like she has an injury on the wattle and it must have gotten infected. She's not showing any signs of fatigue and she is still laying every day. No other hens are picking on her.
The coop is raised and has pine shaving in. They eat all the scraps as well as their laying pellets, and they free range every afternoon for several hours. So not really stressed.
Should I be concerned or will she heal okay on her own?
Thanks
