could be protein growth mate take a picture and post up on here mate so we will be able to tell you what the problem is

 

all the best.

Keep it away from the others straight away!!! Could it have knocked it? is it on a joint? is lump solid or puss filled? Could be paratyphoid, any history?

[Dod]

there is fluid in it i was going to pop it but didnt want to hurt it,this is my first time breeding so im not sure what paratyphoid looks like all my other ybs are fine and so are the old birds.

if its a protein lump what should i do?

Leave it alone as it will dry up and drop off without any interference

is it on a joint? it could have hit the perch hard trying to get up, if you can get a picture up it would help, as could be a number of things,

the joint 1/2 way up the wing

[bullcock]

I had this once it looked purple in colour as if it was full of blood, I tied a piece of fishing line tight around it and it fell off itself and the bird never showed any sign of discomfort.

Calcium build up if hard at knuckle, soft? = possible cyst, treatment = nothing it will go hard or drain istelf.

i have never seen a protein boil on a pigeon so young, if the lump is on the joint of the wing and has fluid in i would take no chances and dispose of the bird sooner the better, jmo

the only bird ive had a protein lump on was a youngbird a good few years a go.

the black colour is a distinct sign its a protein lump.

 

paratyphoid lump is entirely different.

[TREBLE D]

it is a protein boile and it is the first i have ever seen on a bird so young, learn somthing new everyday as the saying goes,
