It's too late for a vet to do anything for the beak. She and her others hens were probably debeaked as chicks. It's an extremely painful and cruel operation where the beak is electrically burned off and the blood vessels cauterized. The beak will never be able to grow back.
She is likely in no pain from it now, but she will have a difficult time eating anything but moist food.
Thank you I really appreciate the help. I don't think people realize how much I've fell in love with my hens. I spend a lot of time with them outside and we search for bugs and worms whatever we can find
