Are the chicks legs splayed, or was it just the toe issue?
How many total do you have hatched, and still left to hatch?.
Yes the legs were becoming very splayed. With the tape the chick is doing just fine. Wish I'd known about tapping last yr when a friend gave me a just hatched Pea Fowl that became extreemly splayed. I could have helped it.
I have 6 that hatched. 1 died (5 left). 1 couldn't get out of egg after zipping & died.. 4 died In shell. One in process of pipping. 2 that I'm not sure of due to hatch today. For this weekend I have 4 to hatch, Then next Wed, 2 Silkie eggs.
