I'm new to raising chickens and noticed these bumps by any chance does anyone know what it might be..?

Yikes! I'm new to having my own chickens, but worked for a chicken vet. Looks like Fowl Pox or Chicken Pox to me. here's a BYC link...I hope this helps! https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/9372/white-blisters-on-comb-and-wattles

Please don't take my word as gospel, just looks like it from 1 pic. Do some research, wait for others to reply with more opinions? Do you have access to an avian vet?

 

[pepita]

No I'm going to look one up and try to take her in... Should I not eat her eggs just in case..?

 

[Mutt Farm]

If in fact it is Avian Pox, I don't have a definitive answer for eating her eggs. You'll need to research. I'd assume, once the pustules break, all bedding would be contaminated and contagious to other chickens, but have not found zoonotic info. I would proceed with the assumption that it might be if it were me.

I wouldn't eat the eggs now either, I prefer to err on the side of caution. You can also post with photos at "emergencies, diseases, injuries, cures," thread.
