The eye is swollen and almost looks like an abscess like on bumblefoot and hard. Some of the outer area is swollen and puffy. When tried to lance, only a little blood. I got a general antibiotic to add to her water and isolated her. Also got eye ointment someone recommended. Heart breaks to see...
No, never had any disease in the flock. Everyone is healthy and spoiled. I have seven total. It feels kind of hard but no scab?? Almost like a little crater.
I just noticed Chauncy had her eye swollen with a scab/ injury. She is eating and drinking fine. What caused this and how do I treat? I put some regular antibiotic on it. This is my first chicken emergency so I am not sure how to treat! All help is appreciated!![/IMG]
