If someone can help I'd really appreciate it.
I have 4 baby chicks. They're 2 days old. I noticed this morning that one of them has a problem with his leg. From attempting to feather sex I believe he is a male.
Anyway, he can't seem to put any pressure on it. He hobbles around but can't keep up with the others. He is eating and drinking well though.
From searching around online I've read all kinds of advice. Everything from using pipe cleaners to splint his leg to that he needs to be humanely put down.
Please take a look at the pics and let me know what you think I should do.
