So, I've gone off the deep end. I've got a cross beaked pullet, Cleo who is severely cross beaked as you can see from the picture. She's smaller and much thinner than her flock mates and spends a good part of her day at the feeder making a mess and not getting much. She is most definitely part of the flock, chases off the chicks from treats, hold her own with the rest of the flock. I just don't have the heart to cull her.
I've taken to tube feeding her a concoction of chick feed, greek yogurt, raw egg and water all well blended. Read up on how to tube feed and have got that down pat. My question is...how often should she be fed and how much (syringe holds 2 oz)? I realize this is a big commitment but I want to give her the best chance possible.
