Hey everyone. As you all know, I am a wildlife rescuer. However, here in our area we don’t get ducklings often. We were called to pick up this little one who needs help desperately. Does anyone know what this is? All help is appreciated.
hi, i have a polish rooster that i think has heterochromia, if chickens can have heterochromia.
here he is- his name is louis
it’s a bit hard to capture on camera- i’ll catch him and take a better picture if anyone wants one.
anyways, i recently bred him with some of my hens (ameraucanas)...

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...

Hello,
We just got our new flock of 8 chicks this morning. Everything seemed fine but this afternoon I noticed that one of my salmon faverolles had what looked like yellowish liquid on its back and the feathers around the eye. She's keeping one eye shut most of the time. We tried to clean it...
I have a young lavender ameraucana (sp?) Cockerel with lighter eyes than the rest of my flock. He seems to be okay, other than he is very sensitive to light changes, and doesn't seem to have peripheral vision. He follows movent in the front, but doesn't react to anything beside him, unless it...
Our silkie rooster has been very violent lately but that is to a whole separate hen. This particular hen, Judy has had some white crunchy stuff on her wing feathers. They aren’t fluffy and full like the other two silkies. She’s separated from the other two her in flock. She is in a clean tub...
So ive had "issues" with my polish rooster since I got it at a few days old.(5/28/2020) from the start I noticed it had crusties around the eye even had the eye crusted over a few times in between cleanings. I would use Q-tips with warm water to moisten and clean and would use coconut oil to...
Please if the following two videos can be seen by experts and if i could be told ehat treatment regime to follow, i would be grateful..

Hi everyone, im new to chickens and this is my first flock. I have 11 chickens and a rooster all about 13 weeks old now and free range. About a month and a half ago, I started noticing one or two chickens with a reddish and puffy eye. About two/three weeks later, about half the flock had at...
So our black swedish hatched 2.5 days ago now, had a bit of a troubled hatching with the yolk sac, but we're mainly worried about it's eyes. It looks like they're goopy or stuck shut...? We feel so bad cause she can't see anything, and must be so scared.
We keep trying to gently wash them out...
I just discovered that one of my chickens' eye is injured. She was keeping it closed so I figured it was some minor irritation or something but when she opened it I found that instead of brown, it was a solid cloudy red color like it was filled with blood or something. I couldn't see the pupil...

Background: adopted 6 chickens off Craigslist 2wks ago. Added to single hen (remnant of fox decimated flock) at home. Affected hen is a new one. Was healthy at adoption. Sold as 2yo barred rock.
Situation: everyone was normal, eating, drinking, flocking. I was checking frequently...

A while back a possum attacked my old blind hen, you all helped me with her. In that same post, I posted some pics of my little dogs eyes that had been badly scratched. His eyes are still healing. Just now he got sprayed in the eyes by a skunk that was eating eggs in the coop! How do I clean his...

Hi, I have a beloved silkie who can't open her eye, it looks nasty with a white crust sticking it together. Can I use human eye ointments on her? I washed it with saline solution to unstick the eyelids but she still won't open it, it does look sore. I noticed her eye was a bit gacky yesterday...
Our little chicken has never had great balance, but I thought I should add it. He cannot open his eyes, aside from a little part. He drinks when I put water up to his beak, he tries to eat, but he can't quite see it. Preening like he's comfortable, a little fluffed out (less fluffed now that I...
