Poor eye…help!

Does the swollen area feel solid, soft, or fluid-filled? I would lance it with the scalpel blade just enough to make a small slit. Disinfect the site beforehand. That is just to see if anything can be squeezed out. Since it is around the eye, take care not to squeeze too hard. Let us know what is inside, or if it is just swollen tissue.

My nurse friend came and assisted. As soon as we touched it lots of blood. Nothing came out when we lanced it and the part kinda behind the eye was really hard. I’m thinking it was a tumor. We decided to cull

Blood does make it sound like a tumor. I am sorry for your loss. That is very sad.

Thank you. I know there was probably no chance of it ever being able to be with other chicks and it just kept growing. I think I made the right call.
