ah ha, we might have found the problem. Look inside her ears, do you see any black stuff? i'm thinking that's where it came from. does she shake her head alot or scratch at her ears? If you can hold her still enough (get someone to help you) take a q-tip and try and wipe out some of the gook in her ear canal to see what color it is. If those big chunks came out of her ears, i'm thinking it might be ear mites. She'll need to go back to the vet pronto to get that cleared up. It can also be just alot of build up in the ear.
