Wierd White Spots

[EmilyChickens]

Hello "Peeps" (Pun Intended)! I was wondering if any of you knew anything about this. I have a Dark Brahma Hen that is 7 months old, and is laying eggs. But I noticed when I was saying good morning to her today she had white spots on her earlobe. It wasn't something on the earlobe it's her actual skin. It's like it has un pigmented itself and it's just white. I'm a little worried about her because she's my girl, she loves to do everything with me.

I really hope you guys can tell me if it's something that could potentially get worse or if it's fine and it'll go away.


Thanks BYCers!

If those spots look like they are pusstuals, possibly could be fowl pox

They are not raised in any way... they are just her skin.

Sorry, I would be cluless then. One thing i know with chickens is about when u think you've seen everything something new comes along. Good luck with it. Wouldn't worry unless she starts looking unhealthy or stops laying eggs.
