Just got this little baby on Monday 4/22. Weather has been up and down in temps and lots of rain. Today while feeding I noticed her right eye had green discharge and she had clear snot coming from her nose. She’s not coughing as of right now but I just want to make sure she’s ok. The lady I got her from said it could be pink eye but I’ve never had this happen and I worry. Any help is appreciated!

Picture is from Tuesday. I’ll try to get a pic of her eye and nose in the morning. She’s very skittish.

I have had one get a little green poopy stuff in a eye and used saline and washed the eye, it was fine in the next few days. If everything else is normal may just be eye irratation ...just watch to see it gets worse
Is the nose just clear and runny? Or thick and snotty ?
Have you taken her temperature ?

If you just got her on Monday, it could be "shipping fever", which is basically a "cold".
I would check her temperature and if she doesn't have a fever you could see if she can fight it off.
If she has a fever or it gets worse you could treat with antibiotics. You could call a vet or, you can get LA 200 from Tractor Supply

Clear and runny. I’ve not been able to catch her. She’s a bit wild. And it’s been raining hard the last couple days so it’s muddy in spots. I slid 2x trying to feed today.

closest vet is a hour away. I’ll try to corner her in the morning and check. What would be the dose for LA200?

If she has a fever and you need to use thr LA 200, directions should be on the bottle,
