Hi, am new to the forum. Have a question about my baby chick she has what might look like a sty next to her eye. I've been reading others post about watery eyes, or gunk in the eyes, and giving them Vitamin A, like the Enfamil Tri-vi-sol. I've been cleaning it with warm salt water, but it doesn't seen to help. She is eating and drinking ok. But the "sty" releases water/pus if i press it. I first noticed it 3 days ago. Not sure if am doing the right thing or not. Does anyone has had an experience like this with your baby chicks?
Please help!
 
There was a video (somewhere) I just saw how the gunk is expelled & the eye rinsed out with saline solution & the sinus flushed out...Can't recall where I saw it, sorry. You're in the right place to ask, WAIT to see what others with more experience have to recommend.
