EE cross beak?

[DraftXJumper]

My new EE pullet has a crooked face. Honestly crooked. Her beak aligns side to side, but there is a gap top to bottom. I hope this won't develop into a problem for her. She has been eating, drinking, and foraging well since coming to live with us. She's about 8-9 weeks. Any thoughts on her future?

Chickens with crossed beaks still make great companions, with care that they get enough to eat. Always check her crop at night. She will be fine, as long as care is taken to make sure she is eating.

Sometimes soaking her feed in water and raising it slightly higher...(off the ground) will help her to be able to "scoop" more feed into her mouth.
