Flock/Life Journey's 2019

So I went up to my coop again tonight and as I was picking up my older chicks, I noticed that one looks like it broke its jaw :( It looks like scissor beak, but the lady said that she doesn’t have that in any of her chickens or their gene pool. I went up this morning and she was perfect so I am assuming that she broke the jaw somehow even though she is drinking and eating fine. I was wondering if you guys know anything to help her out maybe? Also she was wiggling a lot so I don’t have the best of pictures. When I get help, I will show you guys again:) just asking for friend help :idunno

Poor thing!

Check to make sure there is not some type of string wrapped around the lower jaw
 
I had started my first flock of 24 birds (including one roo) in 2017. Then my life changed and I left the state, I thought forever but God had different plans. I came back to the little homestead here in SC and to my family: one precious man that I married immediately upon my return, 6 dogs, 2 cats, and the original 24 birds minus a couple that died of unknown illnesses. So 2018 was a sad, lonely year that ended on a happy note! And the "girls" are so gorgeous! Big, fat, sleek looking hens. So happy to be back.
Hi:frow... I’m so happy for you! Yes, we would love to see pics!
