So I just got 8 EE's from Ideal Thursday. All healthy, happy and full of vigor. Except one. She's the smallest of the batch, bout like a runt. She's been active, though I've seen her do a lot of sleeping as well. Well, I just noticed one of her eyes is shut. Seems as though she was pecked? and now keeps it shut. Its not crusted, or swollen, and she's eating and drinking, just seems to sleep (bodys way of recovering?) a lot. The eye lid just stays shut What can I do to help her out? She's still in the brooder with the others, as I don't have a chance to get her a seperate area right now. Appreciate any help yall can give me. Oh, and the only meds I have on hand are Vit B Complex, Penecillin, and LA200. I do have Polyvisol, no iron added, which I added to thier water when they got here, seeing there was the one runt chick, I figured it couldn't hurt.
maybe put a small drop of water on the eye, she could be keeping it closed because it hurts or has somthing in it
Well, she is fine this morning Guess she got pecked or had somethin in it, but it seems to have resolved itself. I'll just keep an eye on her still though
