Hi! I recently bought 6 new chicks (told they were all pullets): 2EE's, 2cuckoo marans, 1 buff orphington, and 1 GL wyandotte. I am beginning to be concerned with the beak of the GL wyandotte. I'm not sure if it is normal for this breed, its beak is completely unlike all the other chicks'. It is bumpy and gnarled looking, the nostrils seem a little sunken. When I got her 2 weeks ago, the beak was very smooth and well-formed. She is about 3 weeks old now and seems healthy otherwise. Does she have some sort of deformity? Will it affect her as she gets older? Here is a photo:
