Hello all! I have an eight week old chick who I believe was injured by one of the others at approximately three weeks of age. I medicated her with a steroid/antibiotic gel for 10 days. The eye was pure red and bulging, but never showed signs of infection. She appeared irritated by it, but didn't ever act distressed. Now they eye is gray and protruding less, and is completely opaque. I keep monitoring her for signs of distress or infection, but continue to wonder if the eye will be of concern in any way. I won't pay for enucleation or anything. I'm wondering if any of y'all have had a similar problem... Thanks in advance for any input.
