Hello there,
I have a hen who recently hatched out a couple of chicks from different parents. Most of them were fine, except one. She was born blind, with her ear holes where her eyes should be, and malocclusioned, her beak wasn't aligned. I was going to let her pass naturally, but too my surprise, here she is, still alive, almost a week later. So I force fed her some chick feed and some water, but I don't know how much she needs and how often a day. If anyone has had a case like this, or something similar and could help it would be much appreciated. She really is an adorable chick.
