Cheesy eye

[casportpony]

I don't kill mine either, lol, I just try to remove the pus with tweezers, but only if I'm 100% sure the eye is gone. I'll try to get some pictures of mine for you.

Thanks....I am curious to see what yours look like. I am assuming they only had it in one eye or else if in both eyes they wouldn't be able to see to eat or anything. Mine eats good and seems fine other than the way it looks. I just don't want it to be infection that will kill it if I don't do something.

I purchased the Di Methox powder but I am confused on how to measure it? Help!

Here is the manufacturer's label from Jefferspet. Here's what I would do (and I'm not saying this the right way.) I would add the contents of the packet to a container, and mix with enough water to make 50 ounces--then mix very well, and use 1 ounce to add to 1 gallon of water. Then I would store the rest in a jar, label it, and mix a new batch daily.
