Chicken with sticky eye

Recommended Posts

I've just looked at my girls & one has a swollen & bubbling eye. But only one. The other looks healthy. Is it likely to just be an irritated eye as its only one ? She also squirted out a clear / cream streaked poo while I was watching her. But she is acting normal, eating ok. PLease help .......

Bubbles in the eye, even just one, can be Mycoplasma Henergy. But I think as you do that it is an eye irritation, possibly caused by something lodged in there. If it doesn't clear quickly she needs to go to the vet who will sedate her and flush the area out. If these things are left they quickly become infected with a potential loss of sight. You may find her scratching at it to relieve the irritation. We had an Orpington with a grass seed stuck under her eyelid. We would never have been able to get it out on our own.
