beak bleeding

Hi All, Just moved the girls outside to their coup at night this week as they are now all over 4 weeks old and it is warm enough. They came to visit me today, I work from home and they like to pop (poop lol) up on my computer monitor until I shoo them away. 2 of them have red marks above...

Hello, new to post but have been following along on this forum for a while! We're raising 19 chicks and one of our australorps has had an overgrown beak since 2 weeks of age and after trimming it tonight it started bleeding immediately. We applied styptic powder along with Vetericyn and placed...

6 week old got her beak stuck somewhere 🤷🏻‍♀️. Was bleeding sprayed with vetericyn and separated her. She keeps crying. I feel bad for her. How long before she can be put back with the others?

Hi! I just had my 2nd batch of chicks start to pip yesterday and this morning. Temps and Humidity have been strict. Everyone's fine except this chick looks a little... off? There seems to be a bit of a crack. Is there anything I can do for it?

I walked into my backyard to find one of my hens fighting with a small mouse. From what I saw, my hen was winning and the mouse disappeared. But looking closer I saw blood in my hens mouth and assumed it wasn’t hers. But as you can see in the picture she seemed to have broke her beak while...

Hi all, This injury appears recent. I handle my year-old Bielefelder roo nearly daily, and noticed this today. He had a barely clotted scab about halfway down his lower mandible. It appears to have caused chipping and raising of the beak. I cleaned the wound with saline and put Neosporin...

My poor hen was attacked by a predator and has an injured wing (it is limp and likely broken) and a twisted upper beak (rotated up to the left). We've had problems with possums in the past, and I'm glad I caught her before more harm could be done. There is a puncture I have cleaned up and it...

My 17-week old Orpingtons got rowdy in their range the other day and somehow this one's beak got injured. She was bleeding so I separated her and worked to clean her up, but now could use some input. The picture here isn't super clear, but the edge of her beak there near her face is pulled back...

This morning is the second time my Plymouth barred rock showed up with a beak injury. Originally I thought maybe she got into a fight with some thing (rat, weasel, chipmunk) but now I think it’s self inflicted. Or at least this time it is. You can see it’s right where the beak meets her head...

Hello! I have a 18 week silver laced wyandotte and I came to check on them and her beak was all bloodied! It looks like the top layer of the front beak had chipped off. It seems like she’s in pain and eats very carefully. Is there anything I can do to help her? Will it grow back?

I need some advice from some seasoned duck owners. I had a bird mauled this evening, it looks like something grabbed her by the beak and she got away somehow. The entire top half of her beak has been ripped apart...it isn't gone, but the fleshy potion is all exposed and her nostrils were ripped...

Found little Peep this morning with somewhat of a sore under his beak? Otherwise seems totally fine/normal. Should I separate her from the others? It’s hard/dried so there’s no active bleeding. I can’t tell if any of them have been picking on her. She has no other spots/sores on her. Any...

I have three hens that seem to get along quite fine, but I noticed one of my hens had a injured beak. The tip is cracked and the top of it was hit hard enough it bled and clotted. It seems like it could have happened a couple days ago. She is eating and drinking fine but I want to know if...
