    Broken beak treatment?

    One of our new Americana pullets seems to have injured her beak. They were just introduced to the coop last night after a few days of being caged nearby. All of our chickens are free range. The flock went out to graze and the 4 pullets stayed in the coop. Anything I can do outside of separation...

    Repairing beak injury?

    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...

    Upper Beak Broken Off

    Hi Y’all - I hate to be writing under such unfortunate circumstances, but encountered a sad situation with one of my silkies (female, I think!). She is 4 months old. I opened the run in the morning and she popped out appearing with absolutely no upper beak - only a sliver on the right side. Her...

    Broken beak

    Bertha broke her beak today! In a matter of a few hours she went from being totally ok to this. There was nothing hanging off in order to do a repair. The blood is extremely fresh, almost as if it happened just before I walked in the door. I currently have her isolated in a dog crate in the...

    Broken beak! Please help

    My hen was tugging on some metal object sticking out of the ground very hard when she got spooked and yanked herself back, tearing the whole top portion ( just the fingernail part of you will) directly from the skin. At first it was flipped up all the way like a car hood, but she let me set it...

    Silkie chicken cracked her beak. Requesting advice

    My silkie chicken, Zelda, cracked her beak. I believe she was startled by something and ran into the wire of the coop. She seems to be eating and drinking okay though she has some difficulty picking up larger pieces of food. Like usually she’s quite aggressive when taking corn from my hand but...

    Front of beak broke off

    Yesterday I noticed he had a crack and the tip was a little loose when I touched it, I kind of left it alone thinking maybe it would stay on if I just left it alone. I was thinking of putting super glue on it but he was too wiggly to let me do anything to him. Now today I saw the peice broke...

    Injured chicken, can’t stand up, broken wing/leg?

    hello everyone, today I went out to feed the chickens. We just had our first big snow, and for most of the chickens, it will be their first winter. Some of the girls finally came out of the coop today since it’s nicer weather and of course, they get very excited when treats and feed comes...

    Severe broken beak. HELP! *graphic picture*

    Last night when feeding the flock I noticed that one of the hens, a bantam and everyone's favorite , had a severely broken beak. It is almost sideways and you can see some type of bone sticking out in the picture. We separated her and she seems to be able to eat and drink but I am wondering if I...

    WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR BEAK?!

    So, I noticed this today: No idea when or how she managed it. It looks like the top layer of her beak chipped and split. She doesn't seem bothered by this and is eating and acting normally. Is this normal?? Should I do something or will it take care of itself?

    Prosthetic Beak Attachment

    Hi All, We had a rooster mishap and two bantams beat the heck out of a normal roo. We saved his sorry butt and tube fed him and cared for him until one of his eyes “returned”. He didn’t do too badly for about 10 months but a bantam got loose and teased him, resulting in his fighting the bantam...

    Upper Beak Broken Off

    Came home and let the flock out of the run to roam about the yard and noticed that something wasn't right with our cockerel's beak; apparently, he somehow broke it. He's more than willing to eat and drink, but is hesitant about it because I'm pretty sure it hurts him (back to the quick), on top...
