This little girl is a 3 month old Swedish 55 Flowers. Pi found her standing out in the middle of a puddle in n the rain yesterday and her eyes swollen like this. I got her dried off. I used saline to clean her eyes as best I could and put terramycin antibiotic ointment in her eyes. She won’t eat or drink on her own or if I try to make her. She is holding her own still now day two. I last one of my boys last week same thing. I’m heartbroken. I’ve wanted this breed for so long. I could only find/afford 4 girls and 3 boys. I had a plan to add more at another time. Now I’ve lost one and possibly another.
Additionally today I found a dark brahma (in the same coop) and she was off in a corner alone and sounds like a little kid with a cold.
We have just gone through negative temperatures, snow, ice and now so much rain and mud.
Is what I’m going through weather or is there something in my coop?
These are still living in the grow out coop. I have never moved them to the big coop. They have better protection from the cold.
My questions are what do I do with my two sick babies?
How do I treat everyone assuming I have to put something in the water?
I have no vet options so I have to do what I can on my own.
Thank you and sorry it is so long.
