noticed today one of my 2010 hens has one-eyed cold, have tried to buy one eye cold tablets (old hand) and no one sells them any more...............they gave me some eye drops but it doesnt say on the label its for this, only to prevent infection during racing etc.........anyone have any suggestions on the best way to treat ????

THANKS.

because the chemicals in the salvia from tobbaco will irritate it and infect it more
