Eyeworm can also cause a cloudy appearance.

Vries - after looking at those photos of your chickens it is amazing that they recovered so quickly.
Very fortunate:>

I know I was pretty lucky but at the same time in comparison to how other people I know take care of there birds I did alot more work to keep them alive, I lost a few birds but not as many as I could have
