Single eye clogged... need help

[Eggcessive]

Birds with respiratory infections usually look tired or will stay off to themselves. Look for any sneezing, wheezing, rattly breathing, or nasal drainage. Do they have a bad odor? MG can typically cause the swelling and runny eye from sinus infection. Coryza does the same, may smell bad, and nasal drainage will be thicker, and symptoms worse. Separate and medicate the sick birds. Some people cull sick birds to control the spread, but at least close your flock to birds going out or coming into the flock. MG can be common in backyard flocks. Your state vet or poultry lab can help with testing, or if you cull or lose a bird, they can do a necropsy (autopsy) to test for what disease.

No sneezing, wheezing, or rattly breathing. Also no smell. They're actually improving since yesterday. (more foraging)

Can you see any peck marks around their eye which could cause the swelling? Also, how is your coop air circulation, and is there any ammonia odors, dust, or mold where it could irritate their eyes?

 

[thlynch3]

There are no peck marks or anything related, coop circulation is very good, and the air quality is good. No mold or anything.

Found out it was a vaccine we gave them. The vaccine used to be dead, but they started using live medication. Dissolve an asprin into a gallon of water, do this for no more than three days. Thanks for everyone's help.

?? What type of vaccine did you adminster?

I am assuming that she had an allergic reaction?

 

[thlynch3]

We administered a Laryngotracheitis Vaccine, it was a live vaccine compared to the old vaccine, and we gave them 10 times the dosage they needed. Swelling has decreased tremendously and the birds have improved alot. If you use the vaccine, dissolve an aspirin, like I said, before giving the vaccine.

That's good to know! Learn something new everyday

I'm glad to hear your birds are improving.

If it's just the eye try this ..............https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/1156995/finally-swollen-eye-sinus-lump-swelling-cure-treatment

When their eye is infected or swollen, they act lethargic and sick because THEY CAN NOT SEE much and so they don't know what else to do and eating is hard.
