THAT IS BIZARRE /img/smilies/ep.gif

something is definitely not right....

in the first pic -- did she just have something in her mouth that made it look weird??

i was gonna ask if it was the same chicken

i can't imagine that the top beak was pushed into her head.....

that is one for the book of "things that make you say... hmmmmm /img/smilies/hmm.png"

So, I woke up this morning to find that a newly introduced full grown hen into my flock of 11 hens had her top beak totally torn or ripped off! I don't see any remains of it, but the bottom beak is fully intact. She didn't want to comb out of her nest-I'm sure scared to death- and would not peck at food when I presented it to her. What do I do? Do I isolate her or let her try to establish her bottom "pecking order" which is very evident. Will she still be able to eat and drink? Will the beak grow back? I just don't know what is the best thing for her right now.
I will appreciate any helpful suggestions. Thank you!

If you have a place to keep your chicken separate from the others, you can hand feed her a few pellets at breakfast lunch n dinner time for first couple days..She will still be able to lift water with her bottom Beak. Keep watch to see if she can pick any pellets up after 3-4days of hand feed and pain has gone away..
the beak will grow back. If you have the patience to take care of your chicken you don’t need to kill it. 😊 this has happened to my rooster twice now.
