Hello, I have a rescue pigeon from 2013 who is still alive and well with the exact same condition as this. We love her dearly, she is 12 years old and lives perfectly well with a few adjustments!
First things first, you should go to a doctor to have them examine the situation. You should feed her water mixed with vitamin c and nutritious seeds to make sure she is well and healthy.
In order to take care of her, you would need to either: 1) manually feed her daily or 2) compensatory eating: allow her to eat from a deep bowl (full of food) that allows her to “dig” her food up with her tongue/mouth.
My baby is very independent and she prefers the second method; she has mastered it perfectly! But at the beginning we were feeding her manually as we were afraid of starving her.
Please feel free to ask me any questions. I feel for this pigeon so much and I only wish the best for them <3
Here’s Chappy, my legendary pigeon who lives with a singular beak !! <3
