Default Re: Is 28g underweight for a pedigree winter white

Malocclusion is when the teeth aren't aligned properly so they can't chew & wear down the teeth which then over grow.
You could definitely feed some extras, a mealworm or two & things like flax, hemp, sunflower & pumpkin seeds, even the occasional piece of walnut, small amounts of plain cooked chicken or dried chicken once or twice a week would be good too.
I would go for the seeds more than mealworms or chicken though as she's not that young any more so won't need that much extra protein, giving too much protein when they're older puts a bit of a strain on the kidneys.
