Nothing has changed really... Her face seems like maybe it's a lil less swollen... But she still won't eat or drink

Thank you so much for all you've suggested... Google wasn't helpful with the symptoms she's having but I haven't looked up the breed specifically or if there's any common ailments that's something I will do right now... I looked a lil in the forums but didn't see anything quite like what's happening to momma... Im gunna go back and look again... I appreciate all your help and for taking the time to even try at all. Thank you so much again.

I'll update her condition as time goes by... I really really hope she makes it 😞😞😞

Do you know how often I should do the baths? I've given her one but she wouldn't sit down in the water no matter what I tried... She's quite large and strong... It my understanding that this particular breed have a high mortality rate being as they mainly are slaughtered at 8 to 9 weeks... I didn't know anything about her breed when I got her... And by the time I found out I already loved them so much I just did my best to give her the best life possible... They've even been to the beach and got to run and forage in the sand... I don't have the money for the vet... And there isn't an avian or feathered creature vet around here that I'm aware of...

I posted some pictures thank you for letting me know

Her belly feathers are all gone too 😭😭😭 I should've been paying better attention I should've noticed this... She seemed happy and her normal bully self the day before yesterday ( her and the rooster like to pick on the smaller flock members a lil... They're the king and queen of the flock) I feel so awful... I didn't know till bout 2 weeks after I got the pair that they're designed to be mean chickens... They grew so much faster than the others that's y I decided to Google the breed... I would never eat my chickens I love them all they're my babies... I'm a terrible chicken momma for not realizing she was sick before now... I don't want her to die please if anyone has any suggestions I'll do whatever I can to save her

This is her lil face... She is a Cornish cross about 5 months old hasn't to my knowledge laid an egg yet... I do have a Cornish cross rooster that was in the same pen as her and also 2 orpingtons 2 silkies 3 naked necks and 6 americaunas... None of them have are showing any signs of sickness... I found her standing in the thing we have for water in their pen... There wasn't any poop in the water and I just soaked her in a warm bath for about half hour and no poop in there either... That's why her bottom feathers look the way they do tho is because they're wet.. I don't think it's gleet or whatever that's called her poops were fine before

This is the mass on the left side it's also hard

This is the mass on the right side of her vent... It's hard

My Cornish cross is sick... Her face and head are very swollen and she has 2 big masses on either side of her vent... Idk what to do
