Dolly Parton is so handsome

She's growing on me. I need to get some neck moisturizer for her. That dry skin is aggravating me lol.

I hope not! Is it fixable or just one of those things that happen and can't fix it?

You can do beak trims and monitor feedings. That works for some birds, for others it works for a while before it doesn't

Lol, he's gona have a wizards hat!

Also he was in a blue egg, so he might have crested cream legbar in there somewhere.

Had to go look up that chicken bc I didn't know what it looked like.

I will watch as they grow. Might have to adopt them out to a family who is good at stuff like that. My sister in law knows about chickens. She might want them. If they are roosters though she will raise them as meat birds

I believe this is Pinstripe. I have too many floofy babies.

Note to self. Hatch smaller batches.

Also! In the last pic, she/he dipped out and jumped back into the brooder lol.

Pinstripe had to get back to work, no time for photos, there are many things needing pinstriping!

For Scribble and the beak, others have already covered this well. Keep an eye on them, there isn't a lot you can do. Filing / trimming may be enough, or it may not. It may be best for the crooked beaks to be given the very best 15 to 20 weeks of life they can possibly have then have your sister in law process them. I had 2 gimpy chicks from my batch, I was able to find a lady I worked with who took them in, she's had gimpy birds before and enjoys caring for them.

I had a crossbeak orpington. With wet mash she lived at 6 and 1/2 years. Sometimes that's all they need. If it's severe as the chick grows they may need trimming filing or they may not make it.
