Our girl has always had a slightly wonky eye (a bit smaller then the other) but this morning we woke up to this 🙁
I am freaking out and want to take her to the vet. Do I need to take her In ASAP? It will be an emergency fee so it will cost quite a bit but I don’t want her to be in pain.

Today I noticed my hen's left eye was completely swollen shut--out of nowhere (I check on them periodically throughout the day). She's eating, drinking, active, etc. and no signs of sneezing or fluid that I can tell. Could this be an illness? Injury? Anyone know what I can do for her?
Thank you!!
My chicken has an extremely swollen face and a bubbly eye, but only on one side of her face. She’s not sneezing, acting oddly, or breathing weirdly, but she is frequently shaking her head. Please help, I don’t know what I can do for her. I called my vet, but she has not gotten back to me yet...

Hi everyone,
We had our first (!) hawk attack yesterday. I usually let the chickens free range in my backyard, which is in a suburban area. At about 2:30, I heard some loud clucking noises and turned around, and saw a hawk clutching one of my 4-month old pullets (she was lying completely...
My buff Orpington is 7 months old, she became sick a few days ago. One of her eyes was swollen and had bubbles in it. But we have started treating her with Neosporin and saline twice a day. But now it seems like she is unable to breathe very well. She raises her head and takes a long breathe...
Hello! I’ve noticed that my rooster has a swollen eye on only one side of his face plus around the eye is a little pale. He’s been closing it for most of the day like he’s in pain. He’s been doing this for about 3 days now. He’s still eating a lot and drinking water. He walks around normal as...
