A few days ago we noticed apparent injuries to a 3 month old barred rock pullet just behind her eyes. When first noticed, I thought it looked like pecking injuries. Since then, there has been swelling to the area, at one point her eyes were completely swollen shut. The feathers in the area are somewhat crusty.
She does not seem to be in distress. None of the other 25 chicks we got at the same time, nor our 7 older hens, show anything similar. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks.
