I have been watching my ameracauna (sp) hen Goldie for a while, she gets picked on alot from the other girls. Today I noticed one of her eyes looked strange, so I picked her up and saw that her eye is cloudy, like she has a cataract, so i checked her other eye and it has a small cloudy spot on it to. I checked all my other hens and their eyes are fine. i am wondering if maybe one of my other hens scratched her eyes. She gets picked on alot, not constantly, but enough. She pretty much stays clear of the other hens most of the time. Does anyone have any suggestions on what it could be?
 
is it the iris of the eye or pupil? does the eye look blueish grey? how old is she? is the pupil irregular? does the iris seem shrunken? does she have diarrhea? is she on the thin side? would you say the eye is greying? perhaps post a picture
some of these symptoms I've mentioned are ocular mareks disease. hopefully its something else and not that. what bothers me is the eye turning colors. take a look online at ocular Marek's and see what you think? I can't see her so its hard to tell. hopefully its something else.maybe someone else has a better idea? I wish you the best! and good luck!
