Chicks wing is sticking out

So I've been trying to work with the wing and I can get it to look normal but it never stays that way. Lots of unhappy noises from the chick too

I'm beginning to think it's broken now

Do you have a way to secure it in place once you get
the wing into the correct position, a splint ....

Im fashioning something that will work for tonight until I can get to the store tomorrow. Poor dear, though she really doesnt seem to mind much, until I want to pay attention to it ;)

Well I guess tomorrow will work and the chick probably need's a rest
and remember a paper clip can work as a brace just put the tape on
lightly so as not to cut off any blood flow ...
 
Wanted to update: we did the paperclip splint method last night, she was THRILLED :sick. Anyway she has been hanging close to the brinsea heat plate and giving me the stink eye but it looks A LOT better even with her new hardware. I will try to post picture later today.
 
@gander007 just wanted to let you know she (I hope ;) ) has had a full recovery!! Wing looks beautiful and she has full motion back. I feel we were very lucky. But I attribute your help! No pain or stiffness and I've seen her doing the chick flying thing that they do :)
