This 4 week old Silkie Chick started out with a slight scissored beak but since she has gotten bigger the beak has become worse. She is still eating and drinking fine by scooping up everything. Thus her name “Little Scoop.” I need to know if this needs to be treated by a vet . I feel so bad for...

My two broody silkies have 6 eggs altogether and two of them I noticed had a pip this morning. I hear chirps coming from inside the two eggs and feel some movement when I picked them up. I moved them to a bathroom in my house and put a kids humidifier in there on low just to add some moisture...
