cjk unified ideograph-296ed

Variant form of 育

38638/42720

𩛭 is a dictionary-recorded variant of 育, meaning to nurture or bring up. The 1615 字彙 records it; the 1671 正字通 says its added 食 (“food”) component is nonstandard. An ancestor, 毓, appears on oracle bones used for divination; a 育 form on Qin-dynasty bamboo writing strips predates the Han-dynasty seal examples (official stamps). The Shuowen dictionary describes 育 as raising a child to do good.

Why does 𩛭 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
