Help my rooster broke his beak

[Pampered chicken girl]

Nobody can really help if we don’t know how bad the damage is. A closeup pic of the break would be better.

Like I said I will get some today. Please refer to past posts before asking for photos.

Can you post a photo of it?

Pictures are needed to help you.

Here's the picture everyone needs. It Broke off last night apparently. It was hanging over his bottom beak.

Doesn't look too bad. He'll still be able to pick things up and groom. Might just be tender for a while. Like if you trim a nail too far

That is going to be sore, but doesn’t look too serious. Some people trim beaks to prevent chickens from pecking each other, and that looks like like it is a bit short exposing the cuticle. He should be fine as long as he keeps taking fluids and food. It should heal soon.

Ok good, glad it's not to bad. I will make sure he eats and drinks good

I did. The one picture you posted didn’t show the problem, so that’s why I asked again. Seemed like maybe it wasn’t clear already.

Anyway, are you talking about just the tip part? I thought you said it was the whole bottom part all the way around? Maybe I misunderstood the OP. I would probably try to give him mash instead of dry food if that’s possible, but just for a day or two till it heals a little. Kind of like how when you cut a fingernail too low, it just takes a day till it feels better. It doesn’t look like it will interfere with eating.

Also I stated that the photo was just a picture of him so you could see who you were helping
