Hello! I'm new to the forum, newish to chicken ownership and need advice. I have a mixed flock, 1 rooster, free range during the day. One of my girls I think has injured her eye. She's a showgirl hen, Ali Rose (Burlesque movie) 6 months old, this morning I noticed pus coming from her right eye( no foul smell). We have lots of trees, and lots of wild blackberry bushes. So I hope she has just injured/scratched it somehow. Of course after reading some I freaked thinking she has Coryza. I got her, cleaned it with some warm water, trimmed the feathers around it, put some neosporin on it and gave her a dose of LA 200, just in case it is something else. My question is, does this look/sound like an eye injury or coryza? No other symptoms, eating, drinking, acting totally normal. No sneezing, no coughing, no nasal discharge from what I can tell. I've got her isolated in the hospital ward, just so she doesn't re-injure it, or the dirt irritate it. I'm attaching a picture of the left eye which is normal and then her right eye. It was not completely shut, once I put the neosporin on there she kept it closed most of the time.
