staceychristie Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 New ExBatt has a broken beak It's like she's caught it, and it's split along the top where it closes with the bottom beak. She's stuffing her face, and doesn't seem to be in any pain. She's scared (as most exbatts are) and don't want to subject her to rough handling just yet. Any advice?

Egluntyne Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I had a hen with a similar beak once. All you can do is keep an eye on it and clean it up if it gets very gunky, to prevent it getting infected or fungussy. My hen was OK and it seemed to grow out in the end.
