Beak doesn't line up?

[koakritters]

I've noticed with one of my 2 week olds that the top and bottom halves of her beak don't line up, it's not much, but it's obvious. she seem fine, been eating and drinking just as much as everyone else, so she should be fine when she grows up, right?

As long as she is eating and drinking properly, she should be fine. It is when the alignment is so out of wack where the baby can't eat or drink is when the danger happens. We just picked up a set of 4-H chicks for my son yesterday and one of the chicks had a crossed beak. I hope the UT guy culls the bird. They got the birds from Ideal Hatchery. I guess they don't check all the birds before they ship them. Have no fear and just watch the baby, she will probably be fine.
