Hello! We have a golden laced Wyandotte that seems to have a slightly overgrown beak. She is only 5 weeks old. Any suggestions and guidance why this is happening? I really appreciate it.

Clip the tip with finger nail clippers. The very tip is like our nails.
 
It might be mild crossbeak but hard to tell from only a side view. You can use an emery board to file off the overgrowth at the tip, or dog nail clippers, though I'd personally wait until she was a little older (unless she seems to be struggling to eat or drink) since she's still young and fairly small.
