Today I gave one of my 3 month old polish pullets a haircut. It opened up a whole new world for her. I've been a little concerned about her as she didn't move around much and sort of slept a lot. I gave her a good once over and the only thing I could find was that she could not see. I mean she was blind as a bat. She had been using one of the other polish pullets as a seeing eye chicken. I was afraid that I had a blind chicken on my hands. Well, I decided to try trimming her crest as it was very full, lo and behold she can see.
She is soooo excited! She is running all over the place and has even gone out in their run which she has never done. Now I know to keep her crest trimmed. I guess I can't call her Blind Betty any more, just Betty.
