Help - are these mites?

[JulieBeth07]

That's good to know, assuming it then must work on spider mites, but I'll read up on that.

Fleas, ticks, mites, lice... from chickens and cows to potatoes and blueberries... I wish I would've looked into it sooner

That sounds like the miracle drug.

She does have puss. It's been caking and I've been using warm water compresses/antibiotic salve to alleviate that. It does remind me of a pink eye scenario... but it's more than that for sure. I listened to her to see if I heard any wheezing/congestion ... nothing...

If that swelling is partially pus, then you will need to press it out, it can become like a cheesy material that doesn't dry up even with antibiotics, it has to be removed.

She's still alive. I've been giving her baytril - nutridrench- warm compresses, eye cleanses and terramycin. I also treated her with Permethrin. I don't see any bugs.. She's been drinking a bit... not eating much. 1st 2 pics are of her bad eye.. It was just now that I was giving her tx.. so she wanted to be sleeping

Also... not sure if I noticed am injury to her beak on the same side as her yucky eye... there was almost like a nick to her beak

Do you have her separated from the flock?

Do you have her separated from the flock?

Yes, she is. I've had her separated since the 04/04 when I noticed her eye.
