    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...

    Sick Duckling?

    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...

    Help! Hen with Eye Swollen Shut

    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!!

    Eye lid pulling away from eye in 16 week old chicken

    My Americana chicken recently recovered from a respiratory infection of some kind (bubbly eyes, scratching at his head, and runny poop).

    Possible Eye infection to young roo???

    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...

    Clear discharge like tears coming from duckling's eyes

    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...

    Eye swollen shut on pullet

    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...

    My chicken has orbicularis oculi exudate (puss in the eye)

    I read another thread that had the same puss in the eye thing. Is there any way around the drainage thing? OMG I am light-headed. I have some clindamycin from another chicken that had an infection. If I give that to her first will it make the abscess easier to drain?

    Eye infections in chicks. To cull or not to cull?

    Hoping for some direction..... We bought 5 new Heritage Rhode Island Red chicks and they were doing great for about a month. It appears based on our guess of sizes that we may have 3 roos and 2 pullets. The larger few have been rearing up at each other kinda play fighting so when we found the...

    hello, I have been battling some sort of infection with one of my ducks since August. She has an eye infection (her one eye has been very weepy and stained down) which I believe may be linked to a respiratory infection which her body has been fighting off. I was recommended Tylan 50, however...
