Chick with curved beak

[DuckBoy323]

. Hey yall I have a chick that I believe is a broiler that has a curved beak like an eagles beak and also has a wattle below the beak too and was wondering if it'll affect the little guy? Thanks yall. Ivan

the little chick has a crooked beak and will have it for life, if it can eat properly, you will have a lovely unique chick! but if it cant, you will have to cull it, because it cant live that way.

How old is it?

This chicken will most likely adapt to its new beak faster then you think. Chickens adapt fast. Even though this is permanent, there will be no way to fix this problem. Good luck

It'll be a month in a few days and it's one of the chicks that eats a lot so I guess it'll be fine. Thanks yall

If you plan on keeping the chicken I would recommend trying to trim the beak to bring it back a little bit. Be careful not to hit the quick. Do you have a dremmel tool or anything like that?

. Here's another picture of my chick from today, and you can see the wattle thing under the beak. Anyone know what it is?

is it hard or soft? it could be the crop but in the wrong place???

i guess soft. It jiggles when it eats.
