So I have a 2 week old Rhode island red pullet. She just recovered from wry neck (yippy). But she also had an injury to her right eye. Probably from tumbling around.
I believe she had lost some sight. and now when she eats gets the feed stuck in her eye.
I clean multiple times daily.

Help me please.
I have a special needs midget white turkey hen. (House bird, for winter).
This morning she wont stand and appears to be in pain. I think my goofy dog may have stepped on her.
Can I give her Metacam?
She was just fine last night, ate great, poops look good and she...
These are pics of the original chick from my post.
She can open it, but of course not for a picture. The peck wound is on the top lid. Can't see in photos. Yes I've been cleaning eye & applying terramycin 2 times a day.

She is eating & active, & pooping, but this crop is thick but movable and...

She is a Rhode Island Red, 1 week old. Her left leg moves & she can kind of walk/hop with it. When i got her she was a day or 2 old & the foot was curled up. I taped the foot a couple times & that...
Hi, sorry not a hatching question this time, but i am in need of a pair of duck shoes. I've been Googling like crazy & can't find them. So before i try to make a pair i thought I'd ask.

Good morning. I tried helping a little after I posted that picture of the external pip. Because she wasn't breathing. Maybe you're correct that she hit a vein. I'm so sad! I let her rest for about 1 hour after I found that pip & wish I woyld have gone with my gut that she was in...
Yes pip face up. Ok I'm doing that now, i had turned it a little already. i think I'm going to make a tiny slit in that membrane. My gut tells me that i should.
