Well this hen has had gummy eyes for weeks and now her eyes look puffy and swollen I'm noticing. What the heck is wrong and what homeopathic medicine can I give? I'm not into the whole antibiotic thing. I've started giving raw garlic and scobys (a home grown probiotic yeast culture) any other ideas?

Your chicken may have a respiratory disease such as MG, coryza, ILT or others. Antibiotics may help symptoms, but won't cure it. Culling sick birds is the only way to get rid of these diseases. If she has had this for weeks your other chickens have probably been exposed, but I would separate her. I doubt if any natural products could help that much.
 
I picked her up and touched her cheeks. They are HARD to the touch. Thought they'd be soft with fluid. Weird
