New chick eye issue???

[Lady in Blue]

The first chick that hatched this morning. When I left both eyes open looked fine. Now that I am home and two more have hatched. He is not opening his/her eye. It doesn't appear to be swollen or anything out of the ordinary..and he is up and walking around.

Check to make sure when he/she dried off completely that it's eye didn't get stuck shut. Another chick may have peck him/her too, but often they are just a little weak from hatching and will shut one eye. See how it is tomorrow.......
