Hello everyone,
We recently hatched 4 bouncing baby Spangled Hamburghs, they are now 11 weeks old, at least 2 are Cockerels. The smaller of the two (Broccolli according to my 4 year old), got a bit of a pecking on his neck a few weeks back. Nothing major but the after effects are a bit odd.
Part of the area has got some sort of growth on it, slightly paler than the skin colour and quite wrinkled. No new feathers are coming through it but it causes him no discomfort and he's perfectly happy and seemingly healthy. We've trawled the internet and asked around but to no avail.
He wasn't wounded other than losing a few feathers.
Any Ideas?
Thanks
James
