Will attempt to be brief.
Friday (NZ) afternoon discovered what I thought was a wound - black scab 5cm wide, red around edges, small amount of puss.
Got in to see vet Saturday afternoon - verdict tumor. she removed the scab and put some powder on to help contain bit of bleeding.
Now on Friday thinking it was a wound I started dosing Tilly with colloidal silver liquid (oral, 3 times a day) and cream to scab (twice a day). This was after was washing the area with water and betadine.
Have been adding garlic to her minced possum meat.
Noticed last two days no red area around scab, no puss. But the skin in the surrounding area looks yellowy in color.
Not sure what that means?
Could anyone enlighten me.
Has anyone had a chicken that is at this stage do a turnaround in their health.
As you can imagine it was a shock when the vet said it was a tumor. Her and Lulu are my first ever chickens.
Tilly earlier this year had egg peritonitis, which after two lots antibiotics, plus colloidal, then her stopping laying internally, she came right. This was after the vet had said to me it was fatal. Was almost at the stage of trying out the syringe thing extracting liquid but then we went into lockdown.
