Hello Friends,
I have 13 week old buff orpington (Rosy) and she was fine until about 5 days ago when I noticed that her left was closing from the bottom and the overall shape is not as round as her right (norma) eye. She keeps that left eye open majority of the time. It is just the bottom part of the skin around the eye extends higher than normal and covers the bottom part of her pupil.
She eats normal but seems to be drinking less than before...I find it hard to catch her drinking water so I forced fed her water yesterday..but it has been raining last few days so I don't think she is dehydrated. She roams around with silver wyandotte (Daisy) and is active as usual. I also have 2 silkies of the same age.
Rosy seems ok other than her eye. I will try the saline solution in her eye as someone suggested in another thread. I got the mist though.
If this has happened to your chicken or you are familiar with this symptom and what it can mean as well as any solutions I can try to help her eye, please let me know.
Thank you,
Ola
