Hello

[The Isa Silkie]

I have joined because one of my Silkie hens has a swollen lump next to her eye. I first noticed it yesterday. it was bleeding a bit and i washed it with warm water and salt. was this the right thing to do? Does anyone else have this problem?

I'd try posting on the section of the forum for injuries, which is here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/10/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures There are a lot of knowledgeable people on here who can give you advice. Good luck!
