Help eye problem!

Hoping somebody on here may have some insight as to what's going on with my girl's eye, & what to do about it?? I live in northern Ontario, so I'm pretty sure I can rule out the worm issue, as I read that it's mainly a tropical environment thing. This is my first flock (I have 6), & she was a very recent addition. Thanks

Welcome to BYC. Is she having eye drainage, bubbles, or pus in her eye? The white film could be normal, and just her nictitating membrane (third eyelid.) Here is some info about that: http://www.the-chicken-chick.com/2013/05/chicken-anatomy-nictitating-membrane.html

No drainage, pus, or anything like that. She seems otherwise healthy, & all the other girls are healthy. I do hear an occasional sneeze, but not regularly from any one of them (which I read is normal). They regularly get probiotics, garlic, acv, & ample fresh goodies. Guess I will have to keep an eye on it, & hope it's nothing. Thanks you so much
