My 5 month old Minorca rooster has had his left eye shut for two days now. The bottom lid seems to be swollen when compared to his other eye, but there is no obvious signs of damage or infection. He can open it, but only does so briefly then shuts it again. There does not appear to be any discharge and his breathing and nostrils seem clear.
We also have two Buff Orpington roosters and they have all been doing a significant amount of "order establishing" lately as they are coming of age. We've had a few scratched up/bloody combs and plucked feathers among the three of them in these past few weeks. I'm thinking my Minorca has an bit of an eye injury from the fighting and pecking going on. But I wanted to ask if there is anything else I should keep a look out for?
