One of my hens has been suffering with a swollen, yucky eye for almost two weeks now. It doesn't seem to be getting worse or better. I first flushed the eye with Tylan once a day for about 4 days (after wiping eye with warm washcloth) - no improvement. Now I have Sulmet in the water - no...
Thank you!! I googled "birchen" and that does seem to resemble these markings. At least I got one pullet (hopefully) in the bunch:) Hope everyone has a nice weekend!

Okay, here are some close ups...
#1 (most coloring coming in)
#2 (medium coloring)
#3 (least coloring)
And some feet...
Sometimes do they sell mixes at the feed store? I'm hoping only #1 is a rooster???
Thanks!

Thanks! I'll have to look at their feet when I get home. What should I be looking for? I was hoping they were Australorps, but when they started getting the grey/white feathering I started to wonder. I thought Australorps were all black?

Good Morning
I hope I can find out what I have, these are feed store chicks. The red ones were all from the pullet tank, and the black ones were straight run. They were completely black when they were tiny, but now they're getting some coloring going on. Thanks for your help!
