eye

Hello! I just went to check on my hens and noticed one has her eye closed. We removed her from the flock to get a closer look, she held it closed until we put her down in an isolation pen. She then opened it and I noticed it was red. She had been fine all day. This was noticed a bit after they...

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...

I Just noticed one eye on a 6 week old pullet looks - off. Is it an infection? Something else? What do you think?

Yesterday I noticed something wrong with one of my hens eyes. I thought she got poked or pecked but after looking further I noticed something in the corner of her eye and then tried to pull it out but it seems like there are feathers under her eyelid. I tried to remove it but it definitely seems...

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...

I have 6 week old silkie chicks and I noticed just yesterday that one of them has a swollen upper eyelid. There isn't much swelling but I do believe it's getting worse. So far there is no signs of any serious infection, no discharge from the eyes or noes, they are sneezing but they all have been...

So one of my buff sussex hens seems to have developed an eye injury. Last week i noticed her eye was closed, so i washed it out with water and it turned out there was a small stem stuck in her eyelid. However i also noticed her internal eyelid 'skin' was also loose but i didn't really pay...

Hi I have one hen in my flock of 14 who I got about two weeks ago. I noticed at the beginning of the week she regurgitated/vomited 1x a night - she would do it just one time and then act totally fine? Tonight I was looking at her and one of her eyes was just a little goopy and her beak looked a...

Hello there! Looking for advice- I noticed yesterday my Legbar hen had an eye that was shut. I brought her in to clean it and apply treatment. It appears to be an injury because I noticed a small tinge of blood as I cleaned the area. As I was cleaning the area and right after I applied an...

Let me start off with the information that I have contacted every single vet in town, and none are willing to see a chicken. :( I even called the zoo and the vet they recommended. Ok, this poor girl has been dealing with this eye irritation/ infection for quite some time now, no sneezing or...

Came into the coop today to let them out and this little one seems to, from what I can feel when I went to clean her eye. Has had it either pecked or scratched out. There is no sensation nor sight of an eye underneath all the massive swelling. I don’t have a clue what might have caused this but...

I have a salmon favourelle rooster 1 1/2 yrs old and I noticed his comb turning purple a few days ago. I thought he was just cold so I put in 2 heat lamps and he sat under them. Went to check on him today and he doesn’t sit under the lamp anymore but his comb is very dark/purple and inner eyelid...

I bought home 4 day old chicks today, and noticed after our car journey one of my little polishes seems to have a sore eye that I didn’t notice before when I picked them up.. I’m wondering if it happened on the drive home or something.. is there anything I can do to help her??? It seems to be...

I found one of my quail today looking like this. What is it? What can I do to help her? This is not my photo, but one I found online. However, it looks just like this! Poor thing—thank you in advance!

In the last year I've taken my ill chickens to a vet over an hour each way, but I swear I never get very helpful info. and never as helpful as what I find on this web site! So thank you to anyone who's able to read this. Below are photos of my darling rooster. He lives with my 15 hens and came...

Hey y’all! Long story short: I brought her inside the second week of may because her eye was irritated. Saline flushes, antibiotic eye ointment and respiratory support. Then she went lame. Found lice; treated and gone. Then found roundworms; starting second round today. The lameness lasted...

Hello!! I’m a newbie, just created this account for my cute snowy girl. She’s 5 months old, and we got her for free because she had a small growth on her eye that has now tripled in size and she seems to have scratched it and it bleeds ALOT. It gets in her ears and beak and she shakes her head...

Hello, I have got a chick from a couple days old. It's eye looks infected. It's only his right eye, his left eye is normal. Could someone help me with what to do? (The eye is wet on the photo because we tried to clean it)

Chicken’s eye is swollen! One of my chicken’s eyes are closed. Only one is swollen, which is the right one. How do I treat it? Im going to make a vet appointment but I want to treat it myself until we go to the vet. Please help. He also has some blue around his eyes. Help
