This morning i went to check if my bantam chicks had hatched since i was expecting them to and i found a day old chick that has been attacked and cannot see! 😰 i am extremely devastated
His both eyes are swollen and had also been missing some feathers on it's neck.
Thankfully the good news is...
hello, I have a 1 year old WH that has scabs above her eye. she is otherwise 100% normal, eating, laying, and social..normal. her eye is not draining, foamy or foggy. at first we thought maybe she scratched it but now over the past couple days it keeps growing but healing where the scab once...
One of my turkeys has a foggy and swollen eye! He can't really see out of it, but it doesn't really look damaged. He is breathing fine and the other eye is okay too. He doesn't seem sick at all, besides of course, the eye. Here is a photo:
Should I be worried about this? It was cold the past...
About a week ago, I noticed her eye swollen and red. Redness has gone down, but now there’s green gunk and it gets stuck shut. Reminds me of pink eye. When her eye is open, it’s hazy and I see a white spot that’s under her lower lid. I’ve been treating with vetericyn wash and gel to no avail...
Hi everyone, I came home from work today to find that my duck has been a little wonky all day (my family told me she was “acting dizzy”), so I went to check on her and noticed something wrong with her left eye. I don’t know if it’s a disease or if she got poked or what, I’ve never seen anything...
What is this? I just noticed it while I was topping off water and collecting eggs. This had to have happened fast.
we did move some chickens around recently. The favored hens needed a break from breeding. Is this possibly from squabbles? Is it possibly cancer? I'm at a loss. I have never see...
I have a chicken (almost 4 years old) that has had an injured foot and has been having to stay inside until I can finish her separate cage. I change her bedding twice a day but I noticed her eyes looked a tad bit different as if there's some cloudiness to it and first thing I thought of was the...
Hello, my chicken named Koki who already had a thread about her now has a weird eye that first turned white then turned black right after, she doesn't have any other symptoms, she eats and runs towards us when we give them snacks, she drinks fine and even lays delicious eggs, the thing is her...
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...
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...
hi everyone.
this morning, i woke up and everyone noticed that one of the three chicks that our mama hen has was missing and not with mom. we were all worried, so we started looking for the little guy.
we found him in the chicken coop, all alone. he was just standing there, very still. then we...
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...
