[RiDaGeckoGuy]

His nictating membrane seems to be exposed it’s been like it all his life im wondering if it’s hurting him

He might have had conjunctivitis. That can be associated with a respiratory disease, MG.

 

[RiDaGeckoGuy]

He breaths really well and has strong lungs

He may have had it in the past and recovered. Here is some reading about MG:

Is it hurting him or will he be fine with the big eyes

 

[Eggcessive]

If he is getting around fine, eating and drinking, then it may not be bothering him. If you ever see a foamy eye or swollen eyelid, you could give him some Tylosin or Denagard for a few days. Chickens that have had MG sometimes will have a sunken eye appearance.

He eats and drinks good (he’s a pig when he eats) and he walks and flys fine plus they just look weird they never foam or anything
