Has anyone ever had to deal with an inverted lower eyelid on a
newborn? If so, what did you do to correct this??
I have a beautiful percentage doeling, born Saturday, that has this.
The dam has never had a kid with this before and the sire has not
either, so I am thinking this was a freak happening instead of passed
down.
I have researched on the internet and found the solution of injecting
pen into the lower lid to puff it out, but my hands are not that
steady and I am a chicken. I have been doing the rolling the lid out
by hand a few times a day, but am not seeing much progress.
Any suggestions? I really like her and she is a possible keeper, but
I want to try and fix this before she gets much older.

I lost her to pneumonia when she was about 2 weeks old. I have rebred her mom to the same buck and am hoping for another like her but without the problems.

Oh! Poor thing and poor you. I hope all is well with this new breeding. Good luck!
