Chunk has a small piece of hay that has gone into the corner of his eye (not the eyeball). I have had a look but I don’t want to keep messing with it and make his eye sore. Do small pieces like this work their way out naturally or should I get the tweezers out? He doesn’t seem bothered on the slightest!
 
Is it touching the eyeball?
 
@Reggie&Chunk If I feel like I can get it out I use a wet cotton wool ball or a wet tissue.

If you do manage to get it out you'll need to keep a close eye on it as he may need a vet trip if it's scratched his eye.

Thanks @Jaycey knew you’d know x
 
Dennis had a bit of hay in the corner of his eye the other day that I got out with a damp cotton bud. Luckily I saw it go in his eye so got it out about 2 mins later. Awkward little things aren't they bits of hay and hay seeds?
 
Quick update- Chunk and his eye seem absolutely fine and gave me a bit of attitude when I tried to look at it so he must be ok 😄
