HEN WITH BROKEN BEAK; WON'T EAT

[Riverchicken123]

Help! Our hen Hattie has a broken beak. It is bleeding and she won't eat. What do we do???

Are you sure she isn't eating? That doesn't look like a bad break, so she should heal up just fine. Is it bleeding?

Oh, I had it wrong. She will eat but it hurts her, and her beak is not bleeding, it is just exposed. We are going to try dinner(we give them fermented grains) and if it hurts her we will try oatmeal. Thanks for the quick reply!

You're welcome! Good luck with your hen!
