I purchased for turkens a couple weeks ago, one of the babies developed strange lumps on her neck. Initially I feared it was pox, but have since realized it's something else. The lumps are not hard, but not soft either. They're almost like cysts, but I attempted to open one a bit & nothing would come out. The chick is completely normal in every way aside from the lumps... I've googled until my fingers bleed & nothing... these pictures are from several days ago, the black part I believe was from pecking by other chicks because it has faded quite a bit & was actually a scab like I initially thought, that lump has also flattened out some, but she has another lump growing further down next to her neck feathers...
