Cataracts?

How attached to him are you?

-Kathy

Just enough to go out of my way to find a better place for him. His color is getting very nice and he is pretty tame. Last night we watched as he was wanting to get up on the roost with the hens. You can tell he has some hazy vision, he wanted to jump so bad, he just couldn't bring himself to make the leap.
 
I have a blind rooster that I'm trying to figure out what to with. He hatched blind, but has learned how to find his food and water, so he's okay while locked up. He's nothing fancy, but I'm attached just because of the time I spent teaching him how to eat and drink.

I hatched out a chick last year that had no eyes. I was much easier to cull that one.

Maybe you could make a platform for him to roost on? Then he wouldn't fear missing the "roost" and falling to the ground.
