My chicken, Lagertha, who is a true whiting, has a weird bump on her back kinda behind her left wing. I've done some research and at first thought, it was her oil gland but now not so sure because it is a bit redder and swollen than the other photos I saw.
Another thing I read it might be was an ingrown feather that's gotten infected and the only way to get rid of it is surgery, which I don't want to pay unless I know 100% sure that's what it is and not something I can treat myself.
