He's just started to lay like this. I don't know I'd this is normal, but seems he is the most comfortable

I started a thread around 2 weeks ago. I have 2 chicks (out of 6) with splayed legs. I was told to give them enfamil polyvisol baby vitamins without iron. I gave the vitamins for the last 10 days and they are doing better. Their legs are not perfect, but they are straighter and they are not staggering around like they were. In fact I have to look closely at their legs to identify the affected chicks. I am very happy that they are doing better.

I got my chicks at about 1.5 to 2 weeks old, but I noticed it shortly after I got them home. Don't remember how long it was. I gave each affected bird one drop of vitamins twice a day.
