Hi, my 11 wks old Dominick has both wattle swollen from this morning. It had one wattle swollen at Tuesday and I saw some bees flying around so thought it got stung. But from the morning today, both of the wattles are swollen. It’s eating and drinking normally but I don’t know if it’s serious. Pls help

I would tempted to give her a 1/2 of a human benadryl 25 mg tablet, and just put it in the back of her beak to swallow. Swollen wattles can be a sign of certain diseases, but it can happen with stings and tick bites. Is she eating and drinking okay?
 
She was little bit sleepy and lethargic yesterday, slept standing and alone for sometimes. But she is eating and drinking alright today. Also today she’s very active too.
 
Thank you so much for ur advice @Eggcessive. The swollen has reduced and got back to normal. She is eating and drinking and seems fine. Also didn’t see any signs in others. We are so happy and relieved ☺️
