Dottie the Chicken
Lover of Jesus, cows, and chickens
Good morning, everyone,
I walked into my chicken coop a little while ago, and saw my almost year old cockerel, Maxwell, shaking his head (which he is continuing to do). Upon further "inspection" (although really it didn't take much to notice it) I saw that around his wattles he had some dark red area. I have him in the house now and have also noticed that his wattles are swollen, one more so than the other seemingly. I'm thinking I should try to put some salve on it? Anything else? Also should I keep him inside where it's warm for a while?
