I posted around 6 months ago that my French Marans had a growth over her eye that didn’t seem to bother her. When I sent the group pictures the advice I got was that it was probably an ingrown feather and since it’s not bothering her to leave it alone. In the last 6 months it has been getting bigger. I picked her up today and gently palpated it and she still didn’t seem to be bothered. It feels on the soft side. It is directly above her eye. I wanted to post some current pictures to see what the forum thinks. Thank you for any advice you can give.
The photo on the left was a month or so back. The next two are from today and the last one is from my original post in February.

Can you get a picture of the bottom of her feet? They can get bumblefoot between the toes on top of the feet. Wow, her eye cyst has really grown a lot. Have you ever tried to lance it with sterile needle to see if there is pus or an ingrown feather inside?
