Do chickens have an inner eyelid? The other day when I was taking pictures of Shea's earlobe, one of them came out like this. It's had me rather confused. I've never seen it, and as soon as I saw the picture I went and checked her but her eyes are clear. I thought maybe it was just the picture, but thre rest of her in the picture is clear too. Can anybody suggest what it is I might actually be looking at here?

Now you know one of the reasons I don’t go to TSC during chick days. Just one of them though.

I felt like a little scientist when I learned what that was. Btw, if you even need a picture to explain what the nictating membrane is please feel free to use it.

I'm just happy she's okay. I got worried for a sort time the.

Lol, actually yes this weekend I'll be in thre shack with my saw and drill. I'm going to brood these inside for the time though.

I had the Runners inside considerably more than I did the Ancona, and I feel it made a big difference with socializing them.

Working on a heart cave today. I like the idea much better than a heat lamp.
