swollen eye

[luvfurnfeathers]

this is my light brahma chick she is about 7 weeks old, her one eye is fine the other looks like this. swollen around the eye.I don't know if it was always like this but I noticed it a few weeks ago. she seems fine eating and drinking no issues of her acting sick. any ideas?? she is in with 14 other chicks and no other ones are having any problems.. should i be concerned?

Sometimes a peck to the face or an insect bite or sting can cause swelling around an eye. A respiratory disease could also do this, but there should be other symptoms such as cough, sneeze, nasal and eye drainage, or noisy breathing. Look for a peck mark or a sting.
