White polish crested chick that seems to be blind

[chickenKatie17]

I got 5 polish crested chicks yesterday, and they all seem to be doing fine, but one chick acts a little strange. She bumps into the other chicks and rubs against them. She also does not react when I put my finger close to her eye, so I think she might be blind, or have very limited vision, like maybe she can only see shadows.
She doesn't seem to be unhealthy, the little thing has been eating and drinking just fine, but I want to know if she is blind.
Does any one have any ideas on how to tell if she is blind?

Try shining a light in her eye, even a dim one (not an extremely bright one). If she shuts her eyes then she at least has limited vision. Also try to get her attention with a small object, like a pebble and see if she follows it as you move it.

I hope she's not blind! If she is, please don't put her down. She'll be able to survive, since she's not in the wild having to fend for herself. Hope this helps

Thanks for the advice! I will defiantly try that, and I won't put her down she just might need to be look after a little bit extra

Yes, that might end up being the case. But stay positive
