    Hen attacked by other hen

    So you wouldn't advise on lancing the area of the eye and letting the pus drain? I was hoping she'd recover like the other hen did but that's not the case. It almost looks like her eyes are sealed over. They're split where the eye opening should be but looks as if there is skin over it

    Hole in egg

    About once a week, one of my barred rock hens will lay an egg that has a hole in it. I don't believe she has pecked it, rather it looks as if the hole hasn't quite closed. The edges are raised as if it was broken off. The membrane is never breached. If anyone has answers, please help! Thank you!
