Pullet with extremely swollen eye! Help needed!

[Kiki]

I would want nothing to do with that poor thing UNLESS she was tested for diseases and given an all clear.

 

[Kiki]

If she is does agree to testing and the results are positive for respiratory disease what should I do?

Take a bath everyday as soon as you get off work.

If she isn’t given the all clear but is healthy she will most likely be sold.

Just started doing that today.

Then cull her.

Pardon my brutal honest opinion. We would of had this bird culled and underground instantly. Just seems like it is putting the rest of the farm in a bio hazard condition. I understand the humane aspects of trying to save a living and breathing organism, but the stakes are high.
I'm getting chills trying not to imagine a breakout with more birds. If in fact it is contagious. Seems too risky to attempt to nurse back to health.

Then cull her.

I told my boss that when I noticed how big the swelling was but she just said to try and treat her.

I wanted to cull the pullet as soon as I noticed the swelling but my boss wouldn’t let me.

 

[Kiki]

Your boss isn't sounding like a responsible person so I am betting this testing will not happen.
I already feel sorry for the people she sells to.

I guess I will buy the pullet on Tuesday and cull her myself and then send her off for testing and a necropsy.
