Chickens eye

What can I do to help her eye? She is 7 months old, she is the only one with an eye problem. She seems to be breathing fine and is eating and drinking.

Hi! Welcome to BYC!

Can you post a picture of her eye?

What seems to be wrong? Is it just closed shut or is there some yellow gunk in it?

You can use a saline solution to rinse it out, or make a warm compress for it with Epsom salt water and a rag.

Terramycin ointment is for eye infections, but it's hard to know if that's what she needs without a little bit more information.

Is this just in one eye or in both eyes?
Does she have any other symptoms?

Bubbles in eyes can happen if she got pecked in or scratched her eye. It can also be a sign of a respiratory infection or Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG), and in that case, she would need an antibiotic. If she has zero other symptoms, then I'd go with her eye got scratched somehow.

I'd start by going with what I posted above with rinsing it out and putting the Terramycin ointment in her eyes a couple times per day. If you happen to have triple antibiotic ointment without the added painkiller, you can use that too.
