Ukroosterman 548 Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Yes mate looks as if she's been in sqoble with another hen.... Wash head and face with warm water for next couple of days and check in side her beak for signs of canker!.... Good luck .. Uk Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Old Charlie 11 Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Looks like she could have been knocked about by another hen ,but those crusty bits look like she has been egg eating. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
marshman 7,757 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 (edited) Bruising around the lobe by the looks of it as well as the eye so I'd say she's been at it. Separate her and watch to see if it changes just to be on the safe side and if it does change then cull. Edited March 19, 2014 by marshman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
