I can’t figure out what happened. I don’t see any open wounds, I don’t see any signs on injury on her at all… her eye is just suddenly super swollen with a foamy eye. What do I do? What even is it?

I have been checking my flock for bugs every couple days (quite paranoid about that lol) but I haven’t checked her lately, I’ll check her when I go out tonight and I’ll get some of that tomorrow when I’m out!I'm not sure what's exactly causing it. Could be peck injury or mites/bugs. Vetrycin works good on eyes. I had a girl with a peck injury and after a few days of spraying morning and night it was gone. Her eye was close to that big. If it's bugs I didn't know. Haven't had that problem yet.
She is currently separated I have her in my integration pen. I don’t see any irritation so I don’t think anyone was pecking it thankfullyYou might have to separate her if the other flock mates keep pecking it. I don't know why but when they see something wrong with the other. It's peck time
I can’t get anything antibiotic here we can only get it through vet prescriptions which is 100$+. Are there any alternatives?I would suspect that she has a respiratory disease and sinus infection. Swollen eyelid and eye bubbles/foam can be a sign of MG (mycoplasma gallisepticum.) Tylosin powder in the water which you can get online can treat symptoms. Dosage is 1 tsp per gallon of water for 5 days. Other drugs, such as Denagard, oxytetracycline, and others can treat as well. Clean the eye and apply some antibiotic ointment to the eye a couple of times a day. Terramycin or Neosporin are good. Have you added any new birds recently? MG can be spread by carriers and wild birds.
