7 week old chicken had broken jaw????

[19chickens]

I have a 7 week old chicken that I think has a broken jaw. The bottom beak sticks out at a 45 degree angle sideways from the top one. Is there anything I can do for it? Will it be fine?

It sounds like a cross-beak. Search for "cross beak" here on BYC and see if those situations resemble your own. Cross beak chickens can survive and thrive but it really depends upon the severity.

Good luck!
