Chick is crooked break

[outofthereality]

Hi everyone I have a chick who’s crooked beak, she’s eating fine but I notice her feet are blue/greenish and cold? I live in GA. She was fine until we had a cold front. The chicks and are always been inside. I make sure she eats and her crop is full bc I notice she wasn’t growing as her other hatchlings. Now she is. I need help in what do with her feet and why? Is she lacking vitamins? Or what else should I give her? Here some before and after photos these are a week apart. She was one of the eggs I saved from a hen. She was attack by an animal. But the eggs were cold when I got them into the incubator. It was an hour or so but by then it was GA cold temps

That's a very severe crossbeak. Unfortunately, it will get worse as she ages, and is usually a sign of other malformation. I'd put her down, I'm sorry.

Yeah, and to add on..her mom was killed before they were born so I think it was the cold, since it was outside and very cold in GA. I think she won’t survive either way. Her other egg was hatch and she died 3 days later due to malformation or failure to thrive. Thank you for responding!

The chick is savable, but that really depends on how much work you want to put into it. The beak will get worse, and will need to be maintained. The chick itself should be tube fed starting now, and will need to be tube fed for it's whole life, if that's something you are willing to do.
