The only way i know or have seen videos posted is when people post a link to a youtube video. Then folks can click on that link, which takes them to youtube and they watch it there. But . . . i'm not very technologically adept, so there may be another way to do it.

LOL! that didn't work then.

I will try the youtube one. A shame as my upload speed is not good at all! Max 48KB/s.

Yes, I know, lousy.

I've seen a blind chicken. It's eyes were a creamy off white color, your hen definitely isn't blind. Her comb looks fine to me. I'd baby her, make sure she gets special treats and some fresh grass and clover. Good luck!

Thanks Silkie-lover33

I do think my hen is blind. Or at least mostly. It may be able to make out big objects and light and dark areas. But it certainly cant see well enough to find food. Or to move its head when i put my hand next to its eye to the point of nearly touching it.

Here is a link to a short video clip of Jessica. I will upload more soon.

Yeah! Done it at last. This one is different than the one in the flickr link.

The way she is holding her head makes me think she can see a little out of her right eye, but not the left. JMO
