    Sick chickens with a swollen eye and nasal discharge please help! New at raising chickens! :(

    tylon 50 will fix it in a day or two, give the bird a half ml of it in the top of the neck with a needle. pierce the needle just under the skin of the neck, you dont have to go in very far. you have a respirtory illness.
