Swollen ear, eyes, and loss of feathers on head.

[luvmigirls]

Can someone please help me figure out what's going on? Ive isolated her, and she's eating and drinking normally. No one else has these symptoms.
Started off in her right ear. There was wax blocking. And other chickens looked like they had pecked her. i cleaned her face and put her in isolation.
It's been a week. She's still eating and drinking. But has feather loss now. And a weird swollen face look to her.
Any ideas?

It may be favus, a fungal infection. There also could be a possible respiratory infection causing the swelling of the eyelid and the ear drainage. Favus can be treated with antifungal creams such as miconazole (monistat7) or clotrimazole (Lotrimin.)

It's worse, but can see the white growth in patches around comb. I'm treating now as a fungal infection and keeping her isolated.

Going to do an iodine and monistat trestment regimen daily. Probiotics too once a day.

Wanted to update she lived with that funny looking face all swollen. she was isolated from the rest the flock nobody else got her disease. The anti fungal seemed to relieve the itching. But it did not reverse the symptoms.
She's was eating and drinking. But I left her out without supervision one day and a Predator got her. But up to that point she was happy!

Sorry that you lost her to a predator.
