Help, what could this be

I have had this chicken and another male isolated once they began growing this thing

Gave them medicine for coccidiosis and corzya as well but nothing

Tried natural method of aloe vera water
Medicated feed with turmeric, Cayenne pepper, Oregano, etc .

Normally by a respiratory infection, either Infectious Coryza or Mycoplasma Gallisepticum (MG). If there is a nasty smell, then it’s Coryza, if there is no nasty smell, it’s MG. You need to squeeze and clean out all the pus in her eye or else she’ll never get better.

Here are some examples of what you could do to clear out the eye (it's pretty gross, just warning you).

Even with treatment, if the pus has hardened, it won't go away unless manually removed. Poor baby! I hope your able to help her out. A vet could help or you can try it at home. There are LOTS of videos on YouTube.

I am currently struggling with this in my Flock. I was told by two people on island that it was an eye worm. I have manually removed the puss/worm but her eye is still closed, though it’s now closed and flat. I have put deworming bastenero in their water once a month, tried vet rx both in the water and applied externally with a daily warm compress on the eye. It took almost a month for me to fully remove all the puss/worm (it’s still not clear to me what it was and the eye is still closed. I now wonder if her eye is permanently closed). She’s otherwise fine and running around and laying, but recently, another bird became still with an eye swelled shut as well. I isolated her, treated her with vet rx and also warm compressed and inspected her eye. I am still able to see her eye ball when it’s open, unlike the other bird whose eye swelled and was covered with the white worm/corzya I ended up removing. I’m really hoping for a recovery and working hard to prevent the spread among my four girls and rooster.

Removing the worm/puss was nasty business and hard to stomach but once you see it come out, you realize how important it was to get in there and help her out. I used a plastic first aid tweezer and kept lots of clean paper towels and warm water nearby.
