Thank you once more. Would you recommend placing her in the dark for say 3 days to prevent her from laying for a while. The vent didn’t look prolapsed but I’ll take the advice on board. I’ll buy some oyster shell and calcium tablets. How would I feed her the tablet?

THANK YOU SO MUCH I’ll try and pull it out gently in a warm bath I feed her nromal eggs layer pellets and a mix of sunflower seeds and corn They get grit and treats occasionally I don’t have any oyster shell on hand This hen lays very large eggs bless her Do you think I should try and...

Hi! Please can anyone help! I don’t know what’s exactly wrong with my hen Or what to do about it

Nope not writing a book. I’m way inexperienced to do that. I’m from the uk and I’ve kept hens for about 7 years now but was updating my medicines for the flock I have never wormed my flock with medicines is that the same as feeding them those pellets with worm ex

Hi I was wondering what kind of chicken medications, treatments and preventative measures you can buy to keep your chickens well. And if someone could explain the effectiveness of the medication and what it’s used for that would be great!

The worse eye The black stuff is dead skin and it’s come off the bottom, just the top and around her crown to come off I did see her trying to get it off but you can definitely see her lovely eye! This was the better eye and it looks great. Just waiting for a few more days maybe the rest...

That’s so nice of you But I think she has recovered really well! I do have svalon but thankfully her eyes weren’t too bad at all. It was just the infection and pus initially which was the worst bit, but that’s all cleared up

Thank you! She is doing really well! I have another hen who does have MG she tends to get ill in the winter bless her but I treat her with antibiotics and keeping warm inside I will keep cleaning her eyes and see how it looks

The worse eye There is some yellow there (I don’t think it’s too infected now) there is the patch of dried flaking off dead skin just under the eye which I’m washing twice/three times a day but she can see through it now, she can eat an drink herself as she can see the food! The second eye -...

I don’t think there is any pus inside her mouth, she eats perfectly fine and drinks fine Her eyes are improving loads! She can see more and the infection and smell is gone (just a whiff) There is some peeling scabs of dead skin or dried blood (where she got pecked) coming off her her face...

Today I still use the saline in both eyes and to clean to again and warm water In the second pic, does that look like her eye is still there? I can’t see it properly yet but it’s opened a lot more since the pus has gone

Haven’t been able to go to the pharmacy for an eye wash yet However the saline is amazing! So far the smell she had is literally gone, infection must be cleared up! Her good eye is half open but not fully but she does look around be alert - a very tough hen Her bad eye, I can only see...

Update - I saw some more pus outside her eye today morning and I’ve just brought her in cleared it up, saline in both eyes The good eye is just about opened halfway although it’s not improving or not opening any more The bad eye was cleaned again and I checked inside her eye and I could just...

Not sure I didn’t want to poke around to much But I did see movement previously under the eye Hopefully today it’s better and I’ll check

So far after removing pus

Please may I know the seller for both the neosporin and vegericyn I know it’s late into her eye problem but it would still help I’m sure!

I can check at the pharmacies for eye drops or saline I don’t have any vets in my area who even deal with chickens But I’ll definitely make some saline right now! I’ve just seen the hen and there’s pus urghhh coming out of her eye I will clean it now! I’ll squeeze it out now and clean it...

I’m sure she does have pus inside her eye it looked white when I opened it slightly. However it looks so gross to squeeze out the pus! But maybe I’ll have to check and do that if it’ll help. We dont have Neosporin here and not sure with eye ointments to get I may try and squeeze the pus...

Today I discovered the worser eye has gone more inflamed like puffy and it has yellow infection near the eye lid. I brought her inside again and cleaned this down, I can open her eye now I can see white inside but not sure if this is her eye or pus? The other eye doesn’t want to open much...
