My roosters eye is swollen and his beak is full of mucus

He was a bit ungrateful when mating and was as a result hurting the hens and he’s quite old but really lovely bird very gentle

No chicken deserves any sort of pain in my opinion. Even if the chicken was a butt

Unfortunately we cannot afford to take him to the vet we’re hoping some water will flush him out

i feel you, i like vets but they can be so expensive...

It sounds possibly like he has a respiratory disease and sinus infection. Do you see any bubbles or foam in the eye? Open it by applying a warm wet compress or applying water to his eyelid. It should soften the crust so that you can open it. Are you in the US? You can flush his eye with saline or eye wash, and apply a dab of plain Neosporin or Triple Antibiotic Ointment twice daily. Antibiotic eye drops would also be good. Tylosin, oxytetracycline, enrofloxacin, and Denagard (tiamulin) are common antibiotics that can be given to treat mycoplasma (MG) respiratory disease.
