One of our hens hatched out 9 chicks. We got seven pullets and two cockerels. We've been keeping them in a separate pen til they are big enough to try and integrate into the main flock. Anyway they all act like normal healthy chicks and are around 4 months old but haven't started clucking or crowing yet. But the other day we noticed that one of the cockerels has a set of growths on left side of his face. One part looks like its made of horn and the others look like tumors... I'm going to post the pic below. He shows no other signs of illness. I'd love to know what to do with him and if he's contagious? Any ideas at all will be helpful. Thanks in advance, Deborah.
