I noticed one of my serama mix chicks had a swollen eye at bedtime last night. I checked on her this morning and it hadn't gotten any better, but there was nothing I could do because I had to leave for work. I've just gotten home and checked again and now 3 of the little flock of 15 have one eye almost completely swollen shut! I don't know what to do! I'm thinking it's contagious so I've put those three in a crate away from the others. Any ideas on what this is and how to treat it?
Any ideas on how to prevent in my other chicks and in the future?

These are bantams - serama X silkie between the ages of 2 weeks and 6 weeks
