Baby info:
Polish
Hatched weird
Needed assistance hatching
One side of their face looks a bit stretched and the other smushed bc of the tilt and the crest is probably causing it

Mom is a 2 year old Buff L Polish and dad is a >1 year old SL polish Cockerel

My questions
How can I care for them properly
How much water do they need
Should we try to buy a nipple waterer or how can we make one
Could this just be because of the bad hatch and could there be a possibility this I temporary
Could this be due to my hen, as I’ve hatched out pure sL polish and they’ve all been fine

My concerns
That the others will bully them when they’re older
That they’ll live a shorter life due to this
And also that they’ll have to be given water and food via tube/syringe for a long time or life
