The only way to get a proper diagnosis for her is to take her to an avian vet.

Good luck! :)

The end of the toe looks necrotic. Meaning it is dead. Sometimes this happenes to poor humidity in the brooder. It is caused by a toe stricture. Vet check is definitely needed to prevent infection. Good luck!

your baby need to see avian vet asap. so that it does not infect the other toes.
