    Americuana chick with overbite (with pictures)

    Unfortunately my chick passed away. She just couldn't get the nourishment she needed. Her lower beak also had some issues going on, it was very short and almost seemed like it was broken behind the skin. There was an old thread with a chick with the same problem and I got ahold of the person who...

    What's up with this weird egg?

    2nd time this has happened in the last 2 months or so. One of my hens lays a small white egg with a very thin shell, sounds almost like glass. Anyone ever run into this?

    Hen or rooster???

    Ok cool thank you so much for your help!! I've been worried about this one for a few weeks. I got 2 chicks and 1 passed away so I'm hoping to God's it's not a cockerel! Because then I would have to get rid of it

    Hen or rooster???

    I got this chicken when it was a few days old. He/she is 6-7 weeks old now and I'm starting to wonder if its a rooster? Can anyone help?

    I'll probably try the beak clipping and leave some clumpy food available for her like you suggested. Maybe nobody here has had any experience with this?

    Also she fumbles the food more than anything while trying to pick it up. Just seems like she is pecking around until she finally catches a piece of food

    Yes I actually have fed her scrambled eggs, and the chicks are on this medicated chick starter crumble. I tried adding water to that, and I tried making a mash out of it also. I also tried feeding her yogurt but she doesn't want anything to do with food if I am holding her. She eats food just...

    Americuana chick with overbite (with pictures)

    Thank you for replying to my post! I have tried hand feeding her with little to no success. I've been told to clip the beak back in slow small increments by the local feed stores "chicken expert" but I'm still looking for what people think the long term outcome of this chick is going to be. And...

    Americuana chick with overbite (with pictures)

    I have two 4 week old americuana chicks and 1 has a curved upper beak and abnormally small lower beak. There was an old thread about this but didn't have any info on the outcome of the chick. She has had the problem for about 2 weeks and now is noticeably smaller than the other chick. Im worried...

    Extreme Curved Beak

    I know this is an old thread but I'm curious as to what happened with your chick? As I have the same problem with my amerucana chick. And the same small bump under her lower beak. I trimmed what I could for now and the pic is a few hours after.
