Does anyone know what is happening if your chicken is closing his eye consistently but then opening it very seldom ? I thought it might just be the wind, like it got something in his eye, but I'm not sure. Nothing else is weird about him, only just that thing with his eye. It's pretty windy, and he's a polish rooster, and I heard they don't like the wind very much.

Thanks

Any possibility that his crest is blowing into his eyes?

 

[Fluffychicken7]

Yes it could be. Do you know what I should do if that is what happened?

Try trimming the feathers out of his face....the ones that might be getting into his eyes.

Thanks for the help

I put him in my hens nesting boxes and he sat there, he was sheltered from the wind so his eye stopped being weird. I'm still not sure what it was, so it might've been his crown or dust. Thanks anyways!

Alright and

glad to have you aboard

Did someone say they didn't need a "Rooster" anymore well
I always do my fowl shopping on craigslist under farm stuff
something like that as my mind always go's blank when I see
such a fabulous "Rooster"

maybe check buy sell trade at BYC but you'll need to have 20 Post first

Well why don't you tell them to go and say hello to a bunch of
chicken farmers at the new member introduction ,,,,,,,,,

Hay were eating ,,,,, just tell them to try it, it couldn't hurt

Enjoy your time here

My chickens are in shade for all the Winter months. They have direct sunlight in the summer. I was wondering if they need direct sunlight everyday in the Winter months?
Thanks
