Thanks Kiki. The 3 I've lost started with eye issues like that. The last one wasn't eating enough. Skin and bones.

Hey eye and beak were not like this this morning.
I haven't seen her eat yet this evening but I haven't seen anyone really eat...they are all too busy playing.

I am wondering if someone didn't get into a fight today and maybe she was pecked.

Did you eyes have any stuff on them?
I am not seeing any crusty stuff or anything on her.

Not really crusty. Swollen shut. Guessing the wry neck was from lack of eating. Now, I really feel bad. Not sure why one coop was hit worse than other. Hanging fly strips on both helped. The windy weather would also knock them down for the day.

Did you get some spray yet?

Did you get some spray yet?

It's been 2 minutes. No.

GO get some you nut.

Intranet says birds are sensitive to aerosol biocides. The other thread says spray on surfaces. So, move quail, dowse coop and let dry? This is confusing.

She doesn't look that bad to me Kiki, I would just keep an eye on her and see if she starts acting weird or not wanting to move around. The video she was getting around ok so I think she probably just got poked in the eye.

Do quail eat flies if they hang around?

I don't know but I can tell you my chickens do NOT eat flies.
