White growth on comb

[mychickies]

Wondering if anyone has seen this (the white growth) on their birds? There are actually 2 spots of it, the large one toward the back of her comb and then a narrower but longer bit about halfway down. They are hard, and my hen DOES NOT like them being touched.

Do an on site search on Favus and see if that is what she is dealing with.

If it is a fungal infection called favus, it can spread from the comb to feathered areas. Treatment consists of applying antifungal cream such as miconazole (Monistat) or clotrimazole (Lotrimin, others) daily with a disposable glove. If a vet is available, they may take skin scrapings to confirm fungus. This is a serious favus infection:
