HELP! Chicken eye swollen!

[Eggcessive]

With a swollen eye from an injury or respiratory disease, you can flush the eye with saline eye wash, and get some Terramycin eye ointment from a feed store to put into the eye twice a day for a week or so. If symptoms continue, I would treat with Tylosin in the water or Tylan injectable given orally.

I don't know if we have those, as i said, they only sell organic chemicals here.

Nasal drainage is a respiratory symptom sadly.
A small amount of blood, maybe its a peck injury. I might try a warm compress, sometimes that helps with swelling. Herbs such a Rosemary, Lavender, Ginger, Turmeric, and Cardamom all have anti-inflammatory properties.
I'm pretty sure you can't overdose them if you decide to give it a try. BTW, Turmeric's benefits are increased greatly when fed along with black pepper. Black Pepper contains a compound that increases the absorption of Turmeric.

Are you sure it's respiratory? She has been breathing completely fine, and from past experiences, no other symptoms of respiratory diseases.

@Eggcessive I can't get terramycin, what do I do?

If a vet cannot prescribe anything, then I would use either plain Neosporin ointment or Vetericyn eye gel.

Alright. I'll post an update on whether she lived or died tomorrow. Thanks.

Try to get her drinking and eating some. Hold it up to her beak. Wet chicken feed can be good.

She lived today!

Her right eye is getting swollen too.

How is she doing now? I find Terramycin very successful with the eye bubbles, and I got it from Amazon. Hope she's okay!
