I have read about other chickens with simular things on the forum but none of the symptoms fit my hen.
She has no discharge, no yucky smell and she feels fine and is eating fine.
She is not sneezing or having any trouble that I can see at all.
Its not swollen and puffy and hot like infection. Its almost like a lump. But not like swelling.
My first thought was that she had something lodged in her cheek because its hard.
Any suggestions. i could give her antibiotics anyway couldnt I?
I really cant hold her head still long enough to look in her beak she doesnt mind being held but she wiggles her head when I try to look in her mouth.
If so what should I give her if I were to give antibiotic?
Where do you buy it?
She is a 1 1/2 year old Sumatra Hen
