What to do with bantam while at camp?

[The Coop Crew]

I think she needs a trim.I trimmed mines with nail clippers,a nail file,and flour(to stop bleeding).Just cut a little at a time and get someone to hold her while you trim or vice versa.Hope this helps!!

I do trim hers regularly but she may be due for another one! Thank you!

Can you explain what other things you’re referring to when you speak of cross beaks? I know they sometimes have eye/facial deformities but I haven’t seen anything else mentioned. Any help is appreciated! I have a cross beak that is very near and dear to my heart.

They can have other internal birth defects that you can't see or otherwise just have a weak constitution. This isn't always the case by any means, but it does happen

Anyway you could make a seperate pen inside your coop for her? Space to move with her own food and water it could be just for her or include another mild mannered hen.

I don’t think so,I have a dog crate but it’s small and she would hate me for it.
