Cracked Beak Question - HELP

[Princess_Layer]

We have only just started keeping chickens and we only have 3, they are point of lay.

This morning we were in the garden and something startled them and our Light Sussex (Princess Layer) flew into the cage of the coop.

Because we saw this we decided to check them all and she has a cracked top beak and it was bleeding a little bit but seemed to stop pretty much straight away. She is still eating and drinking from what I can tell.

Will it be ok to leave it or should we take her to the vet.

Thanks from a worried newby

I would let it heal on its own. As long it is not bleeding all the time, breaking open all the time, she will be fine.

Thank you

I'll check her again in the morning.
