Hi all,
I was checking over my silkies this morning and found this weird crystal like stuff lining her face and ears. She lives seperate from the rest of my flock with another silkie hen that's about a month younger than her and the other silkie doesn't have any of this on her. I checked the affected hen over for any of the bits under her main coat and couldn't see or feel anything. They look to me like tiny eggs or something but I'm not sure, any advice would be appreciated hugely. I did have to trim back her facial feathers about two months ago because she couldn't see to get around, so someone has suggested this is just new growth but it's definitely not
