[Ironduccle]

Our 8 year old D'uccke hen has a swelling/growth on the side of her mouth. Has anyone seem anything like this before? She still eats and drinks normally.the first pic is the normal side the other is the growth.

Looks like possible canker. Does it smell bad?

Nope. It doesn't look inflammed either and it doesnt seem to be painful.

Is her eye area swollen, too? Kinda looks like it, but I don't know if that's her "normal."

It could be Cankers, Fowl Pox or even thrush.

Nope no smell. Other than it being there she has no symptoms.

It maybe an oral Yeast infection then.

To me it looks as if there is some kind of thin wire wrapped around the lower part of her beak cutting into it:
