Chick with split tongue?

[Chiccenlover]

I have some 6 day old chicks and one of them is breathing heavy and panting. I liked in her mouth and there is mucus and here tongue appears to be in half somehow. It like like it is split. Any help will be appreciated.

Do you have photos of her and her tongue?

Is she able to drink or eat on her own?

There's mucous inside the beak? Can you gently take a swab and swab the mucous out, see if you can clear the beak and get a better look at the tongue.
