Does anyone have experience with a chick that won't open it's eyes? He hatched yesterday and he seems healthy except that he won't open his eyes. Just wondering what to do.

Thanks so much. I guess I was reading another thread and I realized now that there chickens were late hatchers. Ours are right on time as its been 21 days today.
If I hear chirping but there is no hole from the inside to the outside does this mean that they have pipped internally and now need a hole to the outside? I have one egg that has a very small crack I'm it. It doesn't go all the way into the egg yet. Not sure if I need to be assisting or not. Any...
I'm fairly new to chicken raising. I'm wanting to start raising Marans and I was wondering about the best place to buy chickens. I've heard you don't want to buy Marans from hatchries, but do want to buy them from breeders because of the egg color. Where is a good place to buy Maran chaickens...
Do you still have them? I'd be really interested in them? Do they produce the very dark eggs? I hear some chickens are breed for really dark eggs while others are not as dark.
