Can chickens get cataracts?
« on: September 10, 2012, 19:40 »
One of my chickens looks as though she has a cataract in one eye - it's gone cloudy. She seems fine, eating, hanging out with the others etc and shows no sign of being injured.

Yes they can.  There is plenty of info on all eye conditions in poultry on here.
