    Eye Bubbles

    Eggcessive, Thanks a bunch for your input & for the link! She's experiencing no other symptoms so I'm inclined to believe it's just a minor injury or something in her eye. But I will be keeping a close eye on her and update when I can.

    Getting Bullied or Being Aggressive??

    Honestly, since day 1 they had their pecking order established; Marsala, Nugget, Parm....she's always been last to get to eat, last allowed in the coop. And we checked the other 2 last night and they have mites also. I am going to keep Parm separated for a while still. Thanks for your reply
