My chickens eyes are really bad looking and I think she's gotten an infection? Does anyone know how to treat it. It's making her cross beaked. It's not spreading (yay) and I don't have enough money to pay for a vet.

Welcome To BYC

I'm sorry about your hen.

It looks like she may have Canker in the beak, can you get some clearer photos?

Canker is treated with Metronidazole; it is contagious and can spread to others within your flock even if the bird gets better.

ill try to get some clearer photos tommorow, but none of the other hens have it and shes had it for about a month. we thought it was a respiratory issue and she got antibiotics but they didnt work. I've attached photos from a while ago. (We didn't use a antibiotic just for chickens though. It was just something we had around the house

Hey do U have a brand that's not from the USA? I'm based in Australia
I believe that's the drug name, not a brand name.

Here's how to add your general geographical location to your profile.
It's easy to do, and then it's always there!
