My hen sounds congested and has one eye swollen

[Breezybeans]

What should I treaty hens with for congestion and swollen eye? Should I treat the chicken coop with something ?

 

[MrsBrooke]

Swollen eye with congestion could be a respiratory disease. It's important to know which one in order to know how best to proceed.

Would it be possible to take your hen to a vet to get a blood test to determine what the birds have?

Do a little reading on mycoplasma, infectious bronchitis, and coryza to see what symptoms match what you may have.
