I’ve had my Buffy for around six years, and all of a sudden she’s got this lump on her gobbler!! Is it because of the cold? Is it something else?? Help!!

What does the inside of the beak look like? Is there any bad odor or yellow gunk inside? Canker is a bad smelling infection inside the beak, throat, esophagus, and crop that is yellow and cheesy. Treatments of that protozoan infection include metronidazole, ronidazole, or acidified copper sulfate 1/4 tsp per gallon of water for 7 days. Otherwise, it might be cancer. Wet fowl pox can look similar.
