Eye infection

[dishfickle]

Hi all.
I have a little call duck that has had an eye infection for a couple months. I've put cider vinegar in a rib for her, but she never dunks her head except in our or large pond. I would chase her down twice a day and rinse her eye with saline, All that has done is make her very wary, and she tends to isolate a bit. I don't know what else to do. She does not seem like her happy self

I can see some discharge that is it. Is the eye cloudy or white? You need to post a better picture as that will help.

I'll try to get one tomorrow. The area around Her eye just looks really dirty all the time. Not cloudy at all

 

[FarmerGirl101]

Try and clean the area around the eye and look for anything in the eye. She is able to see right

I think she can see ok. She can certainly see me coming! The eye's not squinty or anything. Photo coming soon, thanks

Saline rinse 1/8 teaspoon salt to 1 cup of warm water mixed well and pour over the eye.

 

[dishfickle]

Thanks. I'll try the the formula. I was buying commercial
