One of our neighbors entrusted us with a sick chicken that she believed had a bad ear infection. Her ears were so swollen that she couldn't open her eyes and she had mucus crusted all over her face. We've had her with us for about 2 months and have tried many remedies and antibiotics including garlic water, Blu-Kote, Neem oil, Diatomaceous Earth, Golotal Silver, Eye drops, and many other things. We give her regular baths and so far we have discovered a major lice infestation with a couple of fleas thrown in as well, which we have managed to get rid of in one quick swipe. She has a bacteria or infection eating the skin beneath her wing and she smells like rotting chicken all the time. We cleared her ears multiple times but they have started to clog up again. She had swollen feet when we first took her in, which thankfully has gone away. Every day we clean her eyes off so she can actually see, but every morning she wakes up with stuff caking them shut again. We let her outside because the fresh air and sunshine seem to help a little. Right now her biggest problem is the bacteria or infection eating her flesh off her bones under her wings. Nothing we do seems to help. It's stopped spreading, but it won't go away. It's just at a stand still and my mother is tired of it. She thinks we should put the poor thing out of her misery but I'm not ready to give up on her yet. Does anyone know how to help, or at least what this might be?
