Title: Hen with an eye problem.
Post by: Andt on June 20, 2011, 10:13:47 pm
One of my hens got a bit over excited last week and flew straight in to the perimeter fence, all seemed well until on the weekend I noticed that the hen had something on it's eye.
On closer inspection it looks as if it has detached the 3rd eyelid and it is hanging over the eyeball.

Has anyone had a similar problem, if so what did you do? Any suggestions would be very helpful.

The hen is eating and drinking well and is still laying so does not seem distressed.
