Suspected feather follicle cyst.

Poor Vicki. She's so cute. What kind of hen is she?

Could you list the nutrition info off of your feed bag or post a pic of it? Or tell us what you feed her if it's not a commercially produced food?

Thanks everyone for your help. In the end I took her to the vet as I started to suspect it was a tumour.
Without doing a biopsy, the vet agreed and advised that even if it was an enormous cyst, the hen would not likely survive the surgery.
So In the end, she got put down, and she was starting to show signs of not eating and drinking etc.
Thanks for all your help and suggestions, and we can put down these symptoms as tumour, not follicle cysts
