    I agree, his beak was getting worse and worse every week no matter how much I filled it down it still grew sideways🙂

    How do I know when it’s time to put down my little boy?

    yea, his life wasn’t worth living in the end and I knew he didn’t deserve to keep living with the state his beak was in,no matter how much I loved him, and his company on earth a better place was waiting on him holding the gates open for him😊

    How do I know when it’s time to put down my little boy?

    Update: hello everyone on this thread, the sky gained a little star today. He had been struggling to eat for some time refusing to eat mush and only pellets so he got sick and wasn’t growing so I knew it was time. I made his last day count while he got to say goodbye to his siblings and he...

    How do I know when it’s time to put down my little boy?

    Thank you, genetics are crazy, his mom(the olive eggers) brother looks exactly like him so it’s kinda fun to be reminded that the roosters that got new homes still kinda are with me in some way. This is the Easter eggers brother, I think you can see that they look like each other in some way😊

    How do I know when it’s time to put down my little boy?

    Here is a picture of him, it’s not the best but you kinda get and idea on the size difference of him and his sisters. Excuse the very muddy run, it has been raining for the past 3 months here almost every day

    I do feel his crop every night just to make sure he is eating as he isn’t growing as much as his siblings😊

    How do I know when it’s time to put down my little boy?

    Well kinda, he would much rather have pellets but he will eat them if there are no other food near, he is kinda strange and I have never met a chicken who would put normal food over eggs😊

    How do I know when it’s time to put down my little boy?

    They are eating pellets, because that’s the only grower feed you can get in the nearest stores around me, I sometimes do ground their feed into crumble but he isn’t interested in that. I will try and put a bowl of fresh mixed pellets/crumble in tomorrow to see if that can spark an interest in...

    How do I know when it’s time to put down my little boy?

    Yeah, I’m afraid that they are, in the weekend I’m going to trim his beak again to hopefully make it easier to eat, I have also put in a water bowl in the coop because I’m afraid he can’t drink out of it anymore. But I will try and make the best out of his last time and spoil him rotten😊

    I have a scissor beak chick who is 14 weeks old, until now the only thing I noticed was different about him was that he was a lot smaller than his siblings and ofc his beak. I am beginning to notice him struggling more as the beak becomes more and more crooked. He doesn’t like wet food so he...
