So, we established from an earlier thread that three of our chickies have pox. They are separated from the flock and living in the house right now. All of them have their eyes swollen shut, but we are giving them a soaking in Vetricyn twice a day and the sores are definitely looking better. They still can't open them, but we are on the upswing.
The first bird to get sick, though, isn't improving much. It doesn't look nearly as red and angry, but her left eye is swelling more every day. It is about the size of a walnut and firm. Is there something we should be doing about this? We're already giving antibiotics in her water.
