What can we do peoples? I am hoping to be able to upload some photos, but in the meantime; My beautiful gold and brown Orpington cross has got what look like cysts. There are multiple lumps in a sac either side of her keel bone. One sac, each side, containing different size lumps. She has had these for quite a while, initially they didn't bother me! They never bothered her and still don't, but the sacs are getting larger and filling with more gristle type lumps. She is 6 yrs old and wouldn't survive an anaesthetic. She really isn't bothered, eats, drinks, forages (what a forager!!) and lays the most beautiful eggs. The number of lumps seem to be increasing as you can see one sac hanging down on one side. I'll try and upload some pictures. Please can someone advise the best course of action, if any. Believe me, if she was in any discomfort I wouldn't hesitate to have her pts. But I'm sure she feels fine.

I am not a vet at all or even pretend to be, but they look kinda like tumors-our dog (yes, not the same as I chicken, I know) started getting some lumps on her shoulders and chest and they ended up be tumors.

I don't think there is much you can do except let her live out the rest of her life happy.

Are they mobile? Or attached to the chest wall?

I am not able to help diagnose, but I do I a ton of research on homeopathic treatments, I might be able to offer some insight.

If you do believe these are cancerous, get her started on a mushroom blend. I like Immunity from the Dogs Naturally store. Very high quality and you can give her the lowest dosage. It’s great for cancer. Another thing is CBD oil. It’s fantastic for cancer, and in some cases can knock it out entirely.
Then read this article. It’s for dogs but some of the same principles can be applied.
