eye infection

My duck has an eye infection and it's pretty bad, we took her to the vet and have had her on oral antibiotics and a painkiller 2x/day, and eye cream 4x/day, for a few days now, but it hasn't gotten better. The last few days she's been very sleepy, like she'll just doze off while standing in her...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the site. I live on a lagoon and I feed the ducks that come to my backyard. We're used to seeing a lot of mallards and duclairs, but recently a female cayuga and a female aylesbury duck showed up and have been eating and hanging out in our yard every day. We love them...

My roosters had a fight today and one of them pecked the other one's eye and since then his eye is shut down and watery...i went to pharmacy to buy terramycin ointment but the pharmacist gave me chloramphenicol eye ointment and told me it will be fine as well...im not very sure about this so...

One of our 7 week old araucanas started coughing, sneezing, had runny nose and inflamed eye and produced weird noise while peeping. She sat with closed eyes, did not run away from us like always. I separated her, gave her eye drops against infection, but it got worse. I decided to cull her...

One of my neighbor's chickens recently came to me with a bad limp. I took her in to rest in a big dog crate for a few days and she healed beautifully, so I had released her back to her flock. Since then she's been attached to my hip. Sadly, a few days later, I noticed one of her eyes is swollen...

Hey all, Just yesterday I noticed one of my two young Langshans (they are around 5 months old, and I suspect this one is a cockerel but who knows) was acting low and keeping his right eye closed. His crop was also completely empty. Upon further inspection, the eye looked milky and watery, so I...

Im super worried about one of my ducks, she looks to be in really bad condition and i don't know what to do. She has feathers missing and one of her wings is drooping but the thing i'm most worried about is her face. Her eyes are red and watering and her face is covered in clumps of mud and poo...

This is one of my brown Chinese geese and they have been sitting on eggs for a couple of weeks but tonight I went to check on them and this is what was going on with her eye. Is it an eye infection? What should I do?

Providence has had one eye closed for a couple of weeks, but now the eye is swollen. She’s been on Baytril 2x a day, as well as Terrmycin ointment 2x a day For 6 days. The eye has improved but it still looks poorly. I don’t live near any vets who treat poultry, so would appreciate any advice...

Hello everyone! I have a 16 year old emden gander. Two months ago, I noticed he started having trouble with his vision but his eyes still looked clear and with no drainage. About a month ago, his right eye had become foggy and he was blind in that eye. I figured this was just a normal aging...

Hello, I just got this beautiful new rooster from a friend who sadly had to rehome in a fast fast hurry. I was told about a week ago he got into a fight with another rooster who pecked his eye. No treatment was given other then quarantine, and being new he is still quarantined at my place. I...

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...

Sugar, my 5 month old bantam Cochin pullet, has had a slightly swollen and very watery right eye for several days, but no other symptoms. She is laying consistently and has normal looking poop. She has no nasal discharge, no sneezing or other signs of respiratory distress. So, I have a few...

So we took these two muscovy ducklings from some apartments (before i found out its not legal 😕) The moms always have like 14 and end up with 1 or 2 so we thought, "why not take them home and give them a better longer life?" They have since been domesticated and are very sweet. We have one named...

Today I noticed my hen's left eye was completely swollen shut--out of nowhere (I check on them periodically throughout the day). She's eating, drinking, active, etc. and no signs of sneezing or fluid that I can tell. Could this be an illness? Injury? Anyone know what I can do for her? Thank you!!

My Americana chicken recently recovered from a respiratory infection of some kind (bubbly eyes, scratching at his head, and runny poop). He/she was and is still eating and drinking well, but does seem a little lethargic. Also, not sure if related or not but he’s recently started smelling oddly...

One of my four week old roos either has an eye infection or was pecked in the eye or scratched in the eye. I’m not so sure it is infection because that flock is being treated for respiratory illness with an anabiotic water. I don’t have much medication on hand especially for the eyes. I checked...

One of my 4 week old duckling starting "tearing". The clear droplets were oily, and would dry up and leave a sticky crust around my duckling's eye. I began to see the same thing in my other duckling's eye but it is not as severe and does not leave a prominent crusty dry area around the eye. I...

Looking for advice please! I adopted two injured 16mth old Isa Browns from a farmer 2-3wks ago. He thought one had bumped her eye in transit so I took her in hoping to give her a good home while she recovered. The eye has swollen dramatically and after some research (I'm very new to all of...

This pullet has had an issue with her eyes off & on for over a month. She would walk around foraging with one eye shut for long periods of times, not always the same eye. She wasn't having any swelling in it until the last few days. I've tried eye drops/rinse, don't see any pus in it, just looks...
