    Eye injury

    Sorry for your loss. That is a tough decision to have to make, but best for your flock.

    Eye injury

    It looks like MG or mycoplasma gallisepticum, or coryza. Coryza typically smells bad. Is she gurgling or rattling when she breathes? Have you recently added any new birds that could have brought this into your flock? These are chronic carrier diseases, and once the whole flock is exposed...

    Eye injury

    If the eye is red and puffy you may need to put her in a crate in the coop so they don't hurt her more. Once they see red, they will keep pecking it. Keeping her cage in the coop or run with the gang may keep her place in the flock while she heals. If it won't get into the eye you could use...
