@Wyorp Rock @Eggcessive ? She look pretty sick to me.
Have you seen her poop and is her crop hard ?

Tat looks pretty bad, rinse eyes with warm water, and apply some antibiotic. Is that a scab on her head?, keep here in kennel in warm place, and give some electrolytes and softened food. It may be her eyes are swollen shut from infection or eye worm. looks like she may have mite.lice infestation going on and if she was badly infested with those she could have scratched her own eye, do a through check foe external parisites.

They have tagged others more experienced people but at least that's a start.

I rinsed her eyes with water and have her in a old birdcage with old towels. Checked for lice, saw none. Will spray her tho. I also gave her water and making some rice and later crumble mix. Idk how old she is. I’m guessing maybe 5 weeks

How old do you think she looks?

I think her condition is why she looks younger, but my guess would be 3-5 months
