This is Daisy, she is an 8 week old chick with a short upper beak and only half of one nostril. I found her conditiion several days ago. I watched last night as she ran around trying to steal food out of the beaks of mama and her sibling (who is twice her size and has more feather development). We hand fed her, I noticed she can only eat if the food is up high because she cannot pick it up off the ground. I have seen her drink water. She is active, has energy and is social. Other than hand feeding her at least once a day I don't know what to do for her. Her beak was normal when she was born.
My heart is breaking for my baby.
