Watery eyes....

[Wyorp Rock]

Yes will do... have putten apple cider vinegar to its water and will put some crushed garlic cloves in water too

I purchased him from a breeder... got him when hi was around 2 and half weeks with the other hen... she seems fine but if it is the disease most likely she's going to be a carrier now :-(

Yes, I would consider her a carrier.
Are these 2 the only chickens you have?

I would be careful giving a lot of ACV and Garlic. Make sure your bird is drinking water very well - he needs to stay hydrated. Some birds just won't drink water that has something added to it - so if he's not drinking, then ditch the additives.

Where are you located in the world?

I originally got 3 chicks together not knowing their sex from a breeder who I think wripped me off as I had no knowledge of chickens and these where my first.... then found out I had 2 cockerels and 1 pullet so gave one cockerel to my friend... These 2 are around 3months of age
And I have 7 chicks 2-4weeks of age wich I keep separate from the bigger birds .... I am located in the UK it has been raining last few days and his abit dopey.... loves staying out in the rain I have to chase him inside wether that has had an affect on him I have no idea :-/ one of my chicks is sneezing too so I am a lil worried now as I put them in the garden away from the other birds

Eyes has cleared a little his nose doesnt smell atm... but I am looking around and will call around vets see what I can do... will see what the morning brings and have to keep him separated from the rest now :-(
So sad

You can get doxycycline, or tylosin for birds online and give it to them in their water. It's an antibiotic for respitory infections. I'm actually doing this right now, I've just ordered some and I'm waiting for the shipment to arrive. Hang in there, if you like, get the antibiotics and give it to him. If its respitory hopefully it will clear up with some meds. Chickens are resilient!!
