Not necessarily. Unhealthy hens might still lay, but their combs will be paler.
Yes, some chickens do not have cones in their retinas, which are the photoreceptor cells responsible for color vision. Instead, chickens primarily rely on rod cells for vision, which are more sensitive to light but do not detect color. However, chickens are known to have a unique visual system that allows them to see a wider spectrum of colors than humans, including ultraviolet light, despite the absence of certain types of cones.
Yes Studies done for human eyesight often use chicken (Gallus Gallus Domesticus) as test subjects since the eye of a chicken is very similar to humans with regard to cones and rods. Cones, the receptors that enable color vision, are essential for human sight. Chicken eyes have a high percentage of cones, which makes them excellent models for studying human eye diseases.
