Runny eyes

Hi all, a while back I posted about pinkeye. they all got better with treatment. well, some of them have runny eyes again, but not red or anything like before, just runny with no other symptoms. doens't seem to bother them at all. could it be dust? maybe I should worm them? any ideas? thanks

Myself I'd use the terramycin eye ointment or biomycin injectable used as eye drops till it all cleared up.

Pinkeye will show up as a blue spot, or blue cloudiness in the eye. If it IS pinkeye, they will need a shot rather than eyedrops, but if it's allergies, dust, etc., drops may help.

definitly no blue spot or cloudiness.

Runny eyes can be a sign of worms. Now that you wormed them, see if it clears up.
Also, goats can and do get runny eyes from allergies at certain times of the year.

i wonder if it might be allergies. I am having a heck of a time myself, so wouldn't be surprised if they were too. not all have the runny eyes, just a few of them.
