    Does anyone know what is happening to my chicken's eye?

    Hi all, First time chicken owner here. One of my chicken's eyes looks swollen, and it looks like she has been losing feathers around it (the patch looks bigger this week than last week). I am wondering if anyone knows what might be happening? Ear infection? This is definitely the lowest of the...

    Eye problem with chick

    Hi, I have a 10 week old Maran chick that has developed an eye problem. It was noticed two days after the chick was introduced to sleep in the main coup so I'm not sure if it is a result of being pecked at by the older hens. The problem was noticed 4 days ago and the attached pictures are taken...

    Hiya, I hatched ducklings recently. The latest to hatch which needed a lot of help due to being shrink wrapped has, and always has had a dodgy eye. It has a white speck in it which does not move and now as of this evening it tends to keep that eye shut all together. It’s a lot smaller than the...

    Swollen Eye

    Good morning, all. I let everyone out of the coop this morning, and it seems like my buff brahma, Dolly, woke up like this. I'm desperately hoping it's something that will self-resolve, but I'm also looking for guidance in the event that it isn't. The last 2 months have been one after the other...

    What???? Weird bump in eye socket

    Hi! This is my first BYC post but I'm an avid chicken lover and have been raising them for years. I found this on one of my roosters the other day and I am mind blown. He's completely fine other than me having to clean out puss every day. He blinks behind the lump and I can still see some...

    Eye injury - swelling, blind, oozing

    I just noticed one of my hens has an injured eye. I don’t know how it happened, I’ve had her separated from my flock for a couple weeks now because she’s been aggressive with the other hens, so it wasn’t a fight between chickens. There are bees in her area, but I’ve never had a hen get stung...

    watery bubbles in eyes, possible MG?

    Today I noticed my light brahma (in a flock of 6) has watery eyes with small bubbles at the corners of both eyes. She hasn't laid in the last few weeks (though it's also winter in upstate New York), and is otherwise completely herself. She happily goes for treats, eats, drink, has no issues...

    Our roo has shown some eye discharge and crustiness around his eye. He has also developed a nasty cough. Any ideas as to what this could be? I attached pictures of his eye. I should also add that I am not able to examine the bird myself, since I am off at college. Thanks in advance!

    Silkie Feathers in Eyes

    My young silkie rooster has short feathers growing up and into both of eyes from his cheeks. My other silkies dont seem to have this problem at the moment.
