NOTE: If this is in the wrong area, could a mod please move it? I'm not really sure where to put it, so I did my best guess.
Hello! Last year at the end of chick season, I bought some (very flighty) yearlings from a local hatchery that had been used as breeder birds. One died of unknown causes - she was in pretty horrible shape, another had no tail feathers and was pretty ratty, one was gorgeous, and then there's this one.
Her beak doesn't seem to cause her any issues eating, foraging, or drinking, but I honestly have no real idea why it's like that. Dp you think it could cause her issues in the future?
None of the other birds' beaks were trimmed, so I'm not sure about that with her, but I guess who knows, really. She is a Delaware, and her name is Echo.
