dirty wattles acompany illness in the birds a lot of the time-and lily white wattles usually is an indicator of good health .

look to the eyes as your problem -without pics of the eyes and down the throat and extending its neck by holding its beak and listen at the back of its neck-so treating blind without some info is not what many would like to comment on,but as a stab in the dark first tell us does the watery eyes have small bubbles in the liquid?

stab in the dark treat for respitory problem -use doxy or similar for 5 days and watch the others.

If it was just swollen eye Use Chloramphenical Eye drops you get from the chemist it will be gone in 5 days. However to me it sounds as if you a chronic respiratory infection with one eye colds and stained wattles, it would be a case of an antibiotic treatment of 3-7 days using either a doxycycline, Tylan or a spiramycin treatmeant. Whenever treating for respiratory I suggest clearing the head with either nazaline or slipsonal, before, and removing all grits and minerals, I would also suggest using either bottled water or boiled water when prepping this medication. Or you could give them full access to an aviary 24/7 it will take longer to clear but it will clear on it's own accord and chances of it coming back as soon as put back in the loft.
