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
Has anyone ever put any kind of patch over the eye of a bird? I am wondering if I can do this safely.
I have a turkey poult with a blind eye and the way she eats is to tilt her head so that the blind eye is actually IN the food. This causes the food to get pushed into her eye and eye socket...
Please help. I don’t know what I’m dealing with. She is the oldest chicken I have and she has had eye problems for the last 3 days. I started antibiotic ointment for her eye today. But I’d like to know what I’m working with. No other symptoms of any illness or anything. Eating fine, active, and...
Hi! I have 2 hens that I just bought on an online auction. 2 brahmas . I am currently quarantining them. So I couldn’t tell from the pictures but the one chicken has a swollen eye and was absolutely covered in feces of what I can only assume to be hers and others. All over her back and down the...
Hello everyone. This morning when I let my girls out I noticed one had a swollen eye. When I picked her up and held her I saw two teeny little white “mites” crawling in that general area. panic mode. How do I treat mites? How do I treat her eye? Are the two related? I’ve never had this problem...
Hi there,
Thanks for reading, I really appreciate any suggestions.
About a week ago I noticed one of our hens keeping one of her eyes closed. I kept an eye on her and didn't notice a runny nose or any excess mucous, but her eye stayed closed and began to look like it had some crusted blood...
Hi everyone,
I have this lone duckling who will be staying with me for a few weeks. It’s a long story, but so far he has been doing excellent! Great eater, great pooper!
I just took him out of his bath and noticed his eye like this. I haven’t heard any sort of congestion or wheezing and he is...
Hi everyone,
My Ayam Cemani has something wrong with his eye. He’s 10 weeks old and I just got him on Wednesday. Yesterday he started shutting his eye a lot, and today there’s a bit of white pus in the corner today. Does anyone know what could possibly be wrong with him. Thanks.
Hi.
So the my issue is: I have a chicken that had some eye issue even when it was young. Its right eye was a little bit swollen and fluid was extensively coming out of it. The vet gave it some kind of antibiotic and it became (still was present a bit) better.
That persisted for months and...
Hello chicken community, I have an 8 wk old black Australorp pullet who keeps closing her eye for prolonged periods of time. When I first noticed it I thought she was sleeping but then she started walking around with her eye still closed. She was completely fine this morning and I feel bad for...
We have a teen rooster whos been attempting to mount our older hen who isn’t having it! She fought him the other day and attacked him pretty badly before we broke it up.
She’s completely fine but he is now closing his right eye constantly/most of the day and parts of his crown are turning black...
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...
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...

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.

Ok so since my neighbors chickens have ventured over and mingled with my flock before I noticed we’ve had a slew of issues pop up!

Hi I’m hoping someone can help me, I took our pet 3 year old turkey to the vets earlier today with a very badly swollen eye, her other eye is unaffected. They gave me Loxicom to try and bring the swelling down and Isathal eye drops for the infection. It smells of infection and over 24 hrs is...
Hi, first time chicken mom here. I have been reading about avian pox, canker sores, and other kinds of diseases but I'm not sure which this is. Or even if it is anything at all. Please let me know what you think I should do. Is it a disease or injury? What's the best protocol to help? The first...
