jam Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Picked up my black brahma cockerel today and saw this on his neck!!!!! What is it? It appears be be hanging off of a bone in his neck, its warm so theres blood circulation in it and its hard as a rock. It almost resembles an external kidney. It seems to have grown over night because it definatly wasn't there yesterday. Its not causing him any pain, Ive been poking and prodding it and he's not bothered. Its not hanging on by a lot of skin either. Ive booked an appointment at the vets, but does anyone know what it could be to put my mind at rest until then???
