Rooster suddenly has swollen face and wattles

[Larkspur88]

I just wanted to add he is still swollen, but I did notice swelling is more profound on hid left side and only one wattle. Does this make any sort of difference?

Really tough to say. Did you smell his nostril/head area for a foul odor?

No bad odor. And I looked up fowl cholera fearful of that, but I'm not convinced he has that. His wattle is just not swollen like the photos I saw. You almost wouldn't know it is until you feel it. It's on the left side. Same side of his face that is more swollen.

Maybe he is just having more URI trouble there? Regardless I'm keeping him on Baytril and if he still isn't improving I'm taking him to a vet Monday. I work for one. He is not an avian one, but he should provide some help.
