Hello! I have a chick(at what age do the become pullets?)with a pretty bad scissor beak. Is there anything specific I need to do for her? I am working on a deeper bowl to make she she can eat. She is not my smallest bird so she is getting some food. I feel so bad for her. Here is a pic of my Roxie.
Thank yall!

I have two crossbeaks!😉 Yeah a feeder that she can eat out of easily is good! Also she will probably have to be fed crumbles all her life!😉 Also a good waterer for her to dip her beak into!😉

Thank you. I am not sure what kind of food I have right now. I think it is crumble. She is only 6 weeks old. Thank you. I will make sure to keep her in it.

Thank you for your help! Let me ask you this... since she is has to stay in crumble should I just buy it for my other 3 as well? Is there a benefit to using pellets over crumble?
Not necessarily, pellets and crumble are really what you prefer. I use pellets that’s what my chickens like, and my ducks don’t get it as messy as crumble. I think you might as well give the other three crumble as well. ❤️🙂🐔

There is no difference!😉 Once she starts laying move them all onto layer crumbles!😁 That’s we have to do!😉
