Please help, what is wrong with my chickens eye?

[Anon112]

Poor thing. I'm not sure about the cloudiness in the eyes. I think that a week of saline rinses and Neosporin is a good start. Hopefully she improves.

My chicken has started doing this with her eye, there is no discharge she is still behaving normally and eating. Can I please get help figuring out what is wrong and how I can help her?

Her eyes are still cloudy and no discharge, sneezing, or coughing. She is still eating and drinking water she slept all day but noticed her droppings have changed.

Thank you, I am unable to get Terramycin without a prescription and there are no vets in my area that see chickens. I will try the neosporin.

You can certainly use Original Neosporin in the eye.

If you are in the U.S., you should be able to find Terramycin eye ointment in stores like TSC or you can order online through Amazon.

The poop has mucous and is a bit questionable. I would consider treating for Coccidiosis. Amprolium (Corid) can be found in the cattle section of TSC or you can order it.

Hopefully she will improve, keep us posted.

Liquid Corid dose is 2tsp or Powdered Corid Dose is 1 1/2tsp per gallon of water given for 5-7 days as the only source of drinking water.
Do not add any extra vitamins/electrolytes that contain B1(Thiamine) to food or water during the course of treatment.
