My Silkie has a crusty eye.

[Hnp]

I noticed my silkie had an

oozing eye yesterday. I cleaned her up and applied Terramycin and VetRX to her beak and under her wings. I haven't noticed her sneezing. There's quite a bit of dried crust on both eyes now and on the beak. Just from Googling I'm thinking Mycoplasma. I have her separated. She's still eating and drinking. She was keeping to herself and tucking her head under her wings though so definitely not acting like her silly self. Any recommendations would be appreciated! I've checked local stores but can't get an antibiotic without a prescription. Anything I can do to help her other than what I'm already doing? Thanks!

Hard to tell if it's Fowl Pox or MG.

Any other symptoms like coughing, sneezing, lesions inside the beak?

I'd work on keep her eating/drinking.
Carefully trim some of the fluff and feathers from around the eyes, this will make it a bit easier to keep her cleaner and the fluff won't stick in the ointment and eyes quite so badly.

I'd keep the ointment on the eyes, do try to minimize rubbing what looks like scabs (leaning towards Fowl Pox).

Thanks! I trimmed her up after those pics. No coughing or sneezing that I've heard. I can't tell if there are lesions. There's a lot of crust that I can't get off. I'm also being very gentle with her because I don't want to hurt or make anything worse for her.
