Beak Bashing????

[awesomefowl]

My barred rock pullet Annabel's beak has a cut on one side, in the actual beak, not nose flesh, and her beak is scratched up. No blood; dried up I suppose. They were cooped up the last two days while we were away... what could cause this. Would photos help analysis? Thank you!!!

Photos would help.... But if she is acting normal and it's not bothering her, I wouldn't worry too much. You may want to give it a washing out if you think it's deep. As for what caused it...any number of things from falling, to getting to stuck in something.
