She is a barred plymouth rock hen, approximately 20 weeks, her eye is swollen and what i first thought was pus looks more like someone has spat in her eye, i washed her eyed with a mild salt water solution and the saliva looking substance came back within 5 minutes. i think it may be from getting pecked but i am not sure.
nothing else seems to be wrong, she is acting normal, but i think the eye irritates her, the other eye is fine.
Please help,
Krod

You should be able to get an antibiotic opthalmic ointment at the feed store, usually Terramycin. Saline is good for cleaning the eye out. Poor girl.
