Curving Bill

[Goat_Walker]

I have a domestic bibbed mallard drake who was one of my first rescues, he is now around the age of 7. His lower bill curves sort of out and then under. He can scoop up corn and flock started ( I have a laying hen) fine, but I am a little worried about it.

Any adice for this little predicament? I dont want him going hungry but I dont want him to crack his bill trying to eat.

wow that's a toughie! I wish I could help but from what i know about duck bills is they're more fleshy than other birds bills (least i believe they are). So i hope he doesnt crack it owh!

Hopefully someone else can give you some advice.
