One of my hens has been suffering with a swollen, yucky eye for almost two weeks now. It doesn't seem to be getting worse or better. I first flushed the eye with Tylan once a day for about 4 days (after wiping eye with warm washcloth) - no improvement. Now I have Sulmet in the water - no improvement...she is eating and drinking and I do not notice any other symptoms, such as wheezing or funny odors. I have searched and read all the available topics on this board and the internet in general, but now I'm at a loss. The only thing I did not do was actually inject antibiotics into the breast...but if antibiotics were going to help, wouldn't I have seen at least some improvement from the application onto the eye?
What should be my next step?
Thanks for any advice!
