HELP

[chickchick24]

Recently, my 2 week old chick's eye won't open; there is no crust, I can open her eye perfectly, but she won't open it. She is drinking and eat a lot, but she leans when she walks.. What can I do to help her???

possibly have an eye Infection. I use tylon 50 injections and they work like a charm.

Hi and welcome to BYC - thanks for joining us. A Q-tip dipped in warm water and gently cleansing around and on the eyelid has worked for me in the past.

Good luck

Where would you inject that?

Posting on the ER forum should help -
