NIger trigger with pop eye

[daniella3d]

I have stopped the food with antibiotics long ago, 3 weeks ago in fact as it was not doing anything. I think the white stuff inside the eye was eye flukes and paraguard took care of it. I only saw improvement after about 4 days in paraguard and the eye cleared, then the swelling started to slowly go away.

I treated for one week with kanamycin and I usualy don't treat more than that with antibiotics if I don't see improvement and I change treatment then. Glad I did as paraguard worked well.
