    Chicken has a swollen eye - infection/ disease?

    Hello! I noticed one of our 1 year old hens being very vocal today and went to double check her. I found her in the coop complaining while the others were all free ranging.

    Cream Legbars

    The struggle is real right!!! We had 7 in 10 last year! So this year when we expanded our flock I thought we’ll pop more eggs in and now have ended up with 11 pullets and small number of roo’s… still working on hubby to keep them all of course ;-) good luck with it all!

    New to chickens...What do I have here?

    I can’t help with the breeds of the 2 white chickens but one (back) looks like a roo and looks like the other is a pullet. So hard to tell with silkies at that age honestly!
