Hey guys—I have a ~2 year old chicken who has had a swollen eye since May. It hasn’t progressed worse on the outside or spread to any other chickens. Other than that her behavior has been normal (energetic, laying great, dust bathing, eating).
We introduced a new girl a month ago and since then her eye has gotten a little more swollen (I assume stress induced) and now she has been laying around a lot more and since introducing the new chicken she’s been laying soft eggs at night below her roost. They’re never in tact when I go to clean up the coop.
We are all natural and have just been letting nature take its course. There’s isn’t a chicken doctor around here anyways. Do you have suggestions on what it could be or what to try that isn’t antibiotics?
