Pingu hatched yesterday morning (I believe) and my friend gave him to me to see if I could help him! He was in the brooder with sandpaper floor, being jostled around by 9 other healthy babies and he could'nt eat or drink coz he hobbles around! Here's the problem....... he can't walk properly! I don't think its splayed legs coz only one leg isnt in position! Tell me what you think!
 
sounds like a slipped tendon, I don't know how to fix it tho. I have a duck who hatched with that problem and nothing i tried worked.he happiliy hobbles his ducky butt around the pen now , and i kept his stuck out leg in a sling while he was younger and he learned to hop on the other one.
 
really need to see photos or even a video of him trying to walk - to hopefully figure out his problem and what he needs to help him.
 
Sorry for not seeing your replies! But he died yesterday at 10 to 12 it was so sad!
