    Eye injury

    Thank you. It's not semi solid cheesy looking. I'm a nurse so I know what you mean. It's more a stringy pinkish tan goo. Like tissue that is sloughing. It's hard to say until I get it flushed. I don't suppose 1% lidocaine is safe for birds?

    Eye injury

    I pulled the lid down enough to see goop. It's not green and purulent but more like slough. I don't have enough hands to photograph it . I also don't have a saline flush. On hand. I can make 0.9% saline solution, but no Teramycin on hand either

    Eye injury

    It's so close to opening . I'll keep trying . She's very perky and vivacious now... despite her eye.

    Eye injury

    It's pretty firmly closed. Can it become sealed like that? I've worked on it and can't seem to tease it open. I'll keep trying tomorrow . Thank you.

    Help! Chicks Eyes Closed!

    Try ointment like Vaseline. It will keep it softer... hopefully this is temporary. Is there extra dust in the pen area ?

    Temps too hot?

    Make it so they can move into or out of the heat. If the garage is always 75 degrees, that may be pushing it without air circulation. When feathered, they tolerate cooler Temps pretty well, plus they clump together for body warmth.

    Disappearing Chicks

    A cat would kill a chick up to about 4 or 5 months. Seal up that escape hole. So sorry....🥺

    Chick eye won’t open

    The other fun thing that happens is vent plugs that need to be removed from their little butts. Warm water helps w that too...
