My young brahma pullet (about 5 months old) has a mystery ailment.

Her eyes are full of foam all the time and seem itchy, she's always shaking her head and scratching her eyes - could it be allergies??

She's gone a bit naked around the eyes from scratching (no more feathers)!

She's been isolated from the flock twice now for over a week each time, she's been dewormed with both Piperazine and Ivermectin, she's had a course of Tylan-50 and tetracycline, she has no lice or mites or anything. NO other symptoms besides the itchy, bubbly eyes. You can see they really bother her but she's still eating and drinking normally and chattering as she wants back in the flock, but what should I do?

Anyone??

I'm at my wit's end... even tried giving her an allergy pill but it did nothing to alleviate her itchy, bubbly swollen eyes.

I need to fix this! please help!
