Should I panic?


I was given a bird had it in quarrentin for 2 weeks looked fine put it in my breeder loft it sat in there for 2-3 more weeks and an resently noticed it had a bum wing looked to be at the elbow. Didnt think much about it an he looks to be getting better i went into my loft tonight an a hen looks funny to me. She just laid an egg so could that be the cause or should i start to panic?

no lump. Honestly I might not be judging it right but i would say no lump but i will check again. Assuming there is a lump is that a something serious?

Did you spread the wing and see this lump or is it too obvious to see even she's standing, is she the same hen who layed the egg?

you could take the ones out that you are worried about to observe them better, if they do end up being sick they would be removed alreadly and try to guess what it may be and treat from there...or if all is well put them back in...
