My frozen chicken help..

[twendt]

I would add antibiotics ASAP. Chickens mask illness well, it's a survival instinct. Your girl could be sicker than she appears. Not to her comb, different, issue, I live in WI, one of my RIR got a bit of frostbite on her BIG comb last year (brutally cold), she's fine. It never fell off, it's just a little more pale than the rest of her comb.

Okay this morning I went out to check in her and one of her feathers got stuck in her eye ball and I tried to pull it off but it was too stuck. The other chickens were trying tos tart fights with her and pecking her so I put the sick one in the garage. And I tried to put her back in yesterday and they did the same thing! Her puss is so much it’s dripping in the floor constantly and the feather is on it so that doesn’t help! What do I do???

When I was giving her the VetRx stuff it seemed she was getting better! But now she’s in the garage she hasn’t been getting it for the past couple days. How do I get the feather off? Taking her to the vet would be my very last resort!

Vet Rx has no antibiotics or anything else that can treat an eye or respiratory infection. Have you ever ordered any of the antibiotics we recommended? It sounds like the feather in her eye has become crusted, and you might have to hold a warm wet compress to soak or wet her eye for a few minutes while holding her in your lap to get the feather out. Have any of your other chickens developed any symptoms of her infection?

Im so sorry she has become worse. It may help to read the first few pages of this thread again and expedite an order of the medications that were recommended or take her to the vet. The Vet Rx will not treat disease, it only assists the same way as Vicks Vapor rub, it will not treat an infection.
Are you able to take her to a vet tomorrow?

Go buy some saline solution for human eyes and FLUSH her eye out, you might get the feather to loosen up and get it out. Find an Erythromycin or Terramycin OPHTHALMIC ointment online without a prescription ASAP, and give the antibiotics recommended in this thread ASAP. Your hen is NOT going to recover, she will eventually die from this. You are making her suffer. If it's too much for you, PLEASE take her to a vet!!!! I easily found TERRAMYCIN OINTMENT online, no script needed, it was $11.95. Search antibiotic eye ointment for "BIRDS"." All Bird Products" was a site I found. She also needs Oral antibiotics.

I have been flushing her eye and giving her antibiotics. The other chickens plucked her belly feathers out so she’s kinda bald there here are pictures from today and her comb is pretty bad.

She actually looks a little better, keep flushing her eye out. ADD ANTIBIOTICS as recommended in this thread!!

Get Terramycin ointment, it is accessible online.
