howdy
i have recently aquired 2 new birds. they are a pair of last years bantam brown leghorns. i noticed on the first day that the roo had a blister like thing on his ear. being new to chooks i didnt think to much of it but have kept my eye on it none the less (he also seems to be sneezing a bit, less now than on days one and two)
i just noticed tonight that little hen has a little blister\\whatever on her ear too. now it could have been there all along too im not sure.
i did give both bi rds a good looking over before i bought but being new to this could easily have missed.
the guy i bougt them from had a small flock of free ranging bantams that all seemed to be in good health with nice housing.
i will try to get some pics up tom. (i am shopping for camera these days and phone cant get good enough shot off)
thanks
