Crooked Little Hen’s beak can be trimmed and that may help her to be more comfortable. I have a crooked chick now. She’s a Buff Silkie and her name is Sideways Sally.

I have a little crooked hen, too! Her beak was crooked from the start as well. I named her Toughy cuz I didn’t think she would make it, but she has a fighting spirit and continues to do well.

Have you ever noticed that sometimes a plain or homely woman will be a hit with the men at a party? For some reason the women can’t see, the men find her fascinating. Charisma is often more a matter of personality and “aura” than looks. Perhaps the roosters find this little hen charismatic, despite her odd beak, for reasons the humans can’t see?

I had a chick with scissor beak pretty bad. He ended up starving despite lots of special attention and food.

I have a homely turkey…she damaged her beak when she was a baby and the others would peck at it horribly. I kept some yucky smelling salve on it to deter them and it seemed to work. Sadly, she lost her top beak and I assumed she wouldn’t survive long. That was nearly 4 years ago! Malformed animals have always held a special spot in my heart.
