I’ve attached some pictures of an injury we just noticed on one of our chickens. I’ve already been browsing BYC for info on this, looks like it might be a good candidate for the tea bag repair method? But there’s no blood and the bird doesn’t appear to have any trouble eating, so maybe we leave it? Thanks in advance!

I think leaving it be but keeping a close eye on it is the best option. I admittedly haven’t looked into beak injuries very much but the only time I have seen the tea bag method used was for badly cracked and split beaks.

Thank you for the input, I really appreciate you getting back to me so quickly 🙏🏻
