    Chick can’t close eyes?

    One of my chicks doesn’t seem to be able to close his eyes, or see. I checked on my overnight hatches this morning, and noticed one had eyes that looked almost dried out. The humidity was high in the hatcher, so I thought maybe a piece of debris from the shell was stuck to his eyes. I gently...

    Eye is gross, quieter but otherwise acting normal?

    My rooster (year old Silkie) seems to have a goopy/bubbly eye. Other than that he is not crowing quite as frequently or chasing hens the same, but still has an appetite and is running around just fine (not lethargic). Our vet can't see us for a few more days and I'm worried about him. We've...

    Chick Won't Open Eye, Not Gaining Weight

    Hi all, My baby chick is almost 4 weeks old. A week ago, her right eye was shut tight and has not opened since (pic from this morning). She's the only one that ever had pasty butt and has always seemed a little slower, unsteady, but last week was really beginning to fight for her place in the...

    My chicken was attacked by a hawk and I managed to scare it off but a day later I noticed she kept her eye shut and she kept it shut for a week or two and when she opened it it looked like this and it’s been like this for a few weeks now. I’m just wondering if she is blind now and do you think...

    Chicken eye turning black

    I was given a jersey giant rooster a few months ago and noticed one of his eyes was a little odd looking,but it still didn't look too bad. It has no progressed to where the iris is turning black, while the other eye is normal. The pupil seems to be a little mishaped too. There is some yellowing...

    Dark Cornish One eye closed

    I have a Dark Cornish around 6 months of age and I noticed yesterday that she was standing around with one eye closed and one open. I wasn’t too sure if I was being paranoid and maybe something was bothering her but I noticed it again today. Her behavior is still fairly normal, she is wandering...

    Hi! I'm new to raising chicks and noticed today one of our 5 week old midnight majesty maran had an eye she wasn't wanting to open/was squinting when she did. On closer inspection she is a little bald around the eye and there was a slight amount of clear pus that came out. Her other eye is...

    Swelling around Hen’s Eye

    Woke up to find my 7 month old hen with a swollen eye and face on the one side. She seems more sluggish than usual. I’m not sure if it is an infection or something else. Any treatment ideas and possible diagnoses?

    Chicken w/ Possibly Infected Eye- Eye Issue Since Hatching

    We have a 4 month old hen that has had eye issues from hatch. We purchased her from a feed store and realized that one of her eyes was very swollen. We did some research and the best we could determine, it was a birth defect causing her eye/eye socket to not be formed correctly. Her first week...
