Chick with vaulted skull care

[LilMissChick]

hey everyone!
Brand new chicken mum here. So I just got 4 baby Silkies. And I find myself worrying about the one with a vaulted skull, kind of incessantly. She is in with all the other chicks, 2 Faverolles, 2 australorps, 2 Ameraucanas and of course, the other 3 silkies. But I keep thinking about the stories I have read about the vaulted skulls being weak and that a peck on the head can kill them. What have people here done with there little vaulted skulled silkies? Do I need to worry that much? Chickens do peck at each other

I would keep your silkies separate. I had a vaulted skull silkie. She did get pecked by the other silkies when she was under 8 weeks. She was never right after that. Thankfully the other silkies left her alone after that. Standard breeds would have probably of killed her. I had to help her inside and out daily and make sure she ate and drank daily.

I have had a few and haven't treated them any different. ..
