Sick chick?

The popping sound concerns me. Is it a rattle, like mucus moving when it breathes? It could be a respiratory infection from not being warm enough when transported. If it's still having trouble breathing tomorrow, consider Tylan 50 antibiotic.

I wiped her eye gently and it thankfully hasn't shut back yet. She is seeming a little more active then she was. And I've seen her actually eat with the others. I still hear a slight popping sound when I listen to her breathing though.

I'm glad to hear the eye seems to have cleared up.

Just keep watch on her for a few days to see that she is eating/drinking well. See if the popping sound decreases once she moving around and more active.

Shes doing a lot better now. The sound isn't as loud and she is acting more like a normal chick. Her eye hasn't became stuck shut again either.

I'm so glad for you, and your chick.
