Blind Quail Chick?

[BELLAPURPLEWOW]

I have hatched a bunch of quail, some still hatching, but one, in particular, seems to have an eye problem. Its eyes look nothing like the rest. It had cripple foot but I was able to fix that. How would i be able to tell if it is blind? Is there any way to help it?

If it eats and drinks it is not blind. If it is blind in both eyes the kindest thing is euthanasia.

That is not all the way true... I have been talking to someone and their blind chick figured out how to eat on its own

One of my roosters became temporarily blind due to infection. It too learned to eat and drink. He learned where everything was. He found the water by touch. The food was a matter of aimless pecking and swallowing whatever. While the rooster did learn to find food and water, I had to forcefeed until he learned

When you watch the quail chick it should be apparent if it can see by the way it acts.
