One of my Quail chicks has a puffy eye

[dave812]

As u can see it is only one eye and he still is growing so I'm guessing he is still eating I know he drinks, any advice that would difer from before and the Q remains should I separate him as I said he has been like this for a few days, 4 or so, I clean pen every day. And I have them on probiotics.

I'd leave it with it's friends as long as none of them are picking on it. You could try using saline eye drops to wash it out but I'm not sure what else to suggest. Hopefully the poor baby will get better soon.

What did you end up doing, and did it help?

I know this is a few years old!! Hope you are on here still. I have a chick who looks just like this since 2 days old! No clue what's going on! It's 3 weeks old now and eats and drinks but they eye hasn't changed much. Did you figure out what was wrong? Did the chick make it?
