Please help

I had recommended putting Terramcyin Eye Ointment in the both eyes twice a day earlier in post 8. Until you get that (ask a clerk at TSC or other stores,) then plain Neosporin or Triple Antibiotic would work. Pox can present a good environment for mycoplasma or other bacteria to cause an eye infection, and the ointment may help. If her eyes are crusted, rinse them with saline. Just be carefel not to remove pox scabs.

Sorry, I completely missed that post for some reason, I just went back to it and saw it. Yeah, I can definitely get Terramycin today for them. How do I apply it?

You may have to hold the chicken and open the eyelids, then place a small dot into eye. The body warmth will then melt it into the eye.

Do I use saline first then apply terramycin? Rinse then apply?

 

[Eggcessive]

Yes, saline first to clean the eye, then ointment.

Update on the situation.

Eyes look 98% normal and healed. Each has only 1 scab remaining on the the comb.

Now, I'm not sure if it's me or not, but it feels like their crops have fluid in them? Neither of them have chest feathers either. Are these things to be expected? If not, what am I dealing with?
