Random Skin Bumps

[altair]

I noticed a couple weeks ago one hen had a bump. I thought it was a tick, but no. Otherwise she acted fine. Skip ahead in time and I've noticed a few more random bumps. She was chased off by some flock members I presume as she was located by herself. I have her alone and she's eating and drinking, but acting ill. She had some wet high-protein mash with honey and turmeric. I'm brewing some oregano and garlic tea to let sit overnight. I don't want it to be the cutaneous form of Marek's disease, but I am researching. She's 3 years old and I've had no other issues with any other bird of all ages so far. The random bumps are kind of throwing me though.

Could this be a strand of fowl pox? @Eggcessive @azygous @casportpony @KikisGirls @Pyxis

Where are the other bumps...I'm just seeing one correct?

I don’t think it looks like pox, but may be wrong, since in silkies things can appear different. It might be a peck that has become infected, or it might be a cyst. I had a rooster with a similar bump, which was hard just above his eyelid. Are the other bumps in that same region or elsewhere? Fowl pox usually affects more than one chicken in a flock.

Yes, there are a couple lesser ones on the other side of her face, some flatter ones on the back of her neck and one on a toe.

It was dusk when I was taking pics, I'll try and get some better ones tomorrow!

Will they show up in pictures?

In the first picture the first bump I noticed is just above her eye. I was gone all of today and now it's dark so I didn't have a chance to take more, but I will tomorrow.
