Corrective “shoes” for chicks

I just came across this curled toe situation for the very first time with a newly hatched chick that was both a bit big and had gotten turned in a weird way for about 12h after pipping. I'm so glad I was able to find this article right away - thank you for writing it!

Thank you for this article and all the great pictures you have to help explain it. We have a member with a newly hatched chick presenting with curled toes so wanted to show them how to splint it. I shared this with the member, and grateful I found this!

Very informative! I'm going into the hatching business and I know I may have this show up at one point so it's good to know what to do if that ever happens.

Great, helpful article!

Useful and practical!

Interesting article...

Good article!

Adding some after pictures would make the article better.
