What should i do?
 
As long as the beaks are not broken, they should heal readily. Is there any chance that something (think predator) has scared them forcing them to fly against the wire of their pen? I'd be on high alert.
Yes actually, a fox had came by the fence earlier and they made quite a fuss. But rizo didnt have any cut on her beak at all, hers is fine.

isbes looks a little cracked like to, im going to wash around the area.


however at this time they were out of the coop but not out of the gate, we have a big chain link gate surrounding the coop, isbe and emmy were the only ones out of the coop, rizo was in the coop. Maybe they tried getting to her?

Emily’s beak looks a bit worse. Its hard to see but up to her comb, by her nostril and by the tip is scratched up.

Emilys beak fell off (the top that was chipped) and now its even with the bottom.

however isbes is cracked higher up, im worried it might come off. and if it does her beak will be exposed. Should i just put a bit of glue on it to get it back together? Im worried i might do it wrong and she ingests it.
