11 week old Easter Egger cockerel looking for a safe home.

He is the sweetest and very tame. His name is Mshai, which is of Egyptian origin meaning ‘wanderer’ but he would much rather be nearby or on you if given the chance!

His beak doesn’t align properly, it’s not crossed, there is a gap.
He has trouble eating unless it’s from a deep dish/feeder.

He’s been raised around kids and dogs and other chickens.

Cant help you with rehoming your Sweet Roo,,,, But have some advice.
Since the beak is not cross beaked, you can gently trim, and sand/file the top portion to get a slightly better fit. It will not be perfect,, but better.
NEVER trim, or file the bottom portion. Then chicken would not be able to drink.
I recently trimmed/filed/sanded 3 of my chickens' beaks,,, to prevent aggressive pecking. Seems to have worked.


WISHING YOU BEST,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,:highfive:
