    Swollen Eye / Lump under wing???

    Really at a loss on what to do here. She can still see out of her other eye and seems ok otherwise eating, drinking but the swelling it getting quite large as you can see from the photo. The swelling under her wing seems to have stopped.

    Swollen Eye / Lump under wing???

    Swollen Eye

    There is no discharge or respiration sounds. She seems healthy otherwise eating, drinking running around doing chicken things. We've given her a very small amount of duramycin for the past 3 days (approx 1/16 of teaspoon once a day).

    She has no obvious signs of injury other than not being able to put weight on her right leg. She's eating and laying still.
