6mo old pullet's eye is swollen shut

[laelaps90]

Tweezers can be used with great care.

Thank you so much for your advice. We were able to get the outer crust completely off and I got most of the pus out. I was afraid to pull too much on what was left as it still felt very attached, but we will repeat tomorrow.
Pardon gross pictures.

Thank you for the pictures. Hopefully, the eye is still intact. Let us know how she gets along.
