eye injury

My drake got into a fight and had his eyelid pulled. Will it heal okay with terramycin or is there anything I can do right now for him?

Yesterday, my roo escaped the coop and got into it with my feral rooster flock. He had minor injuries to his comb that have now scabbed over. No major tears. His eye is also injured. I cleaned his comb with sterile saline wound wash, and applied painkiller free antibiotic cream. I also applied...

My chicken was attacked by a dog causing a wound on her eye which was then made worse by her flock mates pecking at it. It’s been a few months, it happened in August of last year if I remember correctly, and I just picked her up after her flock mates went after her and I saw an eye where there...

One of my chickens lost an eye to a dog attack followed by her flock mates pecking at it. I put her back in with the others after my mom cleaned out her eye, it was dead and causing an infection, and her eye seemed to be healed. I heard clucking at 1 am tonight so I raced outside worried...

Help! My 10 day old baby was attacked by my dog. No injury to her body except for her eye. She seems to have a puncture right next to/behind her eye and it’s swollen and unable to close. I have her separated from the other chicks with electrolyte infused water, some crumbles, and a heat source...

Hey everyone. So I have a little birdie at my home who for very defensive today when my rooster came near his cage. He pecked my Brownie's left eye and now it is closed. I dipped some cotton in room temperature water (it was on the colder side) and pressed it over his eye. The eye initially...

Has anyone dealt with peck eye injuries? (Of course you have, lol). In your experience, how long do they take to resolve? What I thought previously was respiratory issues, I am now thinking is a result of a peck injury. The hen is BAR and normal but has discharge from one eye and some...

Is there any way to determine if an eye is injured vs has ocular mareks based on the pupil? I rescued this hen from an industrial area and noticed her weird eye- she's in quarantine, so low risk to my established unvaccinated flock. Normal eye on the right side, blown out pupil on the left side.

So I let one of our Silkie hens (Paula) nest on eggs and one of them hatched out in good health. I let them be and checked on them an hour later where the accident already happened. The chick was “screaming“ and outside her wing clinging to Paula while she pecked at her. I immediately plucked...

Hello! I have a precious 6 month old duck with an injury to his eye. I noticed this past Wednesday (4 days ago) that he would not open his eye. Upon further inspection, his eye looked glazed over/milky and like there was a small cut. Since then, a bubble like growth is coming off of his eye and...

Hello, I just got this beautiful new rooster from a friend who sadly had to rehome in a fast fast hurry. I was told about a week ago he got into a fight with another rooster who pecked his eye. No treatment was given other then quarantine, and being new he is still quarantined at my place. I...

Hi! I'm new to raising chicks and noticed today one of our 5 week old midnight majesty maran had an eye she wasn't wanting to open/was squinting when she did. On closer inspection she is a little bald around the eye and there was a slight amount of clear pus that came out. Her other eye is...

We have a 4 month old hen that has had eye issues from hatch. We purchased her from a feed store and realized that one of her eyes was very swollen. We did some research and the best we could determine, it was a birth defect causing her eye/eye socket to not be formed correctly. Her first week...

Sugar, my 5 month old bantam Cochin pullet, has had a slightly swollen and very watery right eye for several days, but no other symptoms. She is laying consistently and has normal looking poop. She has no nasal discharge, no sneezing or other signs of respiratory distress. So, I have a few...

Just recently I have purchased 2 Grimaud Hybrid ducklings to give my adult Jumbo new friends. They have been acclimating well and have had no problems but are inside the house for now until they are big enough to be brought outside. Just today I noticed one of my ducklings to have a weird area...

Hi! My turkey hen looks like she was stung by something. Her eye is swollen and partially open. Wondering if I need to do anything? She could barely open her eye last night, but looks like it's partially open. Been keeping an eye on her....she is eating and drinking ok, but mostly laying...

Today I noticed my hen's left eye was completely swollen shut--out of nowhere (I check on them periodically throughout the day). She's eating, drinking, active, etc. and no signs of sneezing or fluid that I can tell. Could this be an illness? Injury? Anyone know what I can do for her? Thank you!!

I just discovered that one of my chickens' eye is injured. She was keeping it closed so I figured it was some minor irritation or something but when she opened it I found that instead of brown, it was a solid cloudy red color like it was filled with blood or something. I couldn't see the pupil...
