Bubbly eye'

[nick97]

So this morning I went out to feed my chickens and ducks and noticed one drake had a bubbly eye and looks like pink eye on a human. I gently wiped the excess off and separately caged him. I think it may be a mosquito bite but not sure cause we just got dumped with 4 inches or rain and mosquitos are crazy. Also what medicatns can I buy to help .
Oxy-something? Thanks go your help

It could be a respiratory infection. The drug you're thinking about is oxytetracycline.

Dose for it is 2.5 tablespoons per gallon.
