Hey y'all I once again need advice on what to do.
Okay so one of my lil buff orpington cocks has a very swollen ear with a big disgusting tick hanging off it, I spent the last hour trying to get the tick of with rubbing alcohol but it's not really working. I was thinking about trying to get it out using a tweezers but if I pull it I might end up leaving the head embedded. He is overall still very alert and drinking and eating okay-ish, seems to be straining a bit when swallowing so I'm keeping him on a liquid diet for now.
I do need some advice on how to get that tick out, I've attached a pic, but it's really bad and dark I apologize for that.
Thanks!
