    My 8 week old pullet has a runny nose since the day before yesterday. She keeps both her eyes closed most of the time and even when she does open them, they open partially and are watery.

    Can anyone tell me what this disease is?

    Please let us know what this is and what we can give her. So far we are isolating her, feeding her medicated food. She is still eating in the yard, but her eyes are closed. She is walking funny-feet swollen. Poor thing. Someone said atheletes powder, but not sure if it would help
