Came into the coop today to let them out and this little one seems to, from what I can feel when I went to clean her eye. Has had it either pecked or scratched out. There is no sensation nor sight of an eye underneath all the massive swelling.
I don’t have a clue what might have caused this but the swelling area seems to have pushed her jaw out of line and now she is having trouble eating and drinking. I have tried to give her what I could. The protruding growth is visible from the inside of her mouth and looks to be almost fully blocking her airway.
She is also now incredibly docile. Hardly budges when I try to pick her up and will just lay there when I put her down. Even when she was on the ground and I was trying to help her with her eye there was only a little resistance from her. Usually she would have bolted and the first sign of assumed danger.
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!
