Hello everyone! So i noticed that one of my new chickens acting kinda lethargic and is not very sociable as it stands somewhere in the corner and mostly doesnt do anything, at first i thought that it might be just her character and perhaps it is, as she would eat and occasionally went bathing in the dirt etc., you know the typical chicken stuff, but then i noticed that she often closes just one of her eyes and when i came closer to see whats wrong, that eye, when opened looked like with a glass bead on top of the eyeball. It looks like it was pecked by another chicken, but yet it seems like it is some kind of a separate formation on top of the eye. When i checked the other eye it seemed a tiny bit cloudy as well, not sure if camera would have caught that, but she ran away in panic before i was able to take a picture. What do you guys think it could be? I never had encountered any issues with chicken eyes and have no idea how to approach it so would be glad if you gave all the advice that you have. Should i rinse it with saltwater as someone mentioned in another post, to disinfect it, could that be helpful? Also im based in Europe so if you think there are any eyedrops i could buy to help, please mention it as well. Thank you!
