How "We" Correct Splayed Legs on New Chicks.

It's a great method I've heard before but never tried it as I never saw it before. Great photos! Especially the one done who looks a bit mad. ☺️

I have heard people who tried having issues with them falling off though but your explanation to make it fit better would help them had they read this. I have hatched 100s and wound up with two w/ splayed legs thus far and cut a thin strip of vet wrap which did the trick. It's good to have different methods though as every chick can be a new challenge! I'll try yours next time to see! :highfive:
this worked just as described in the article.
thank you
Great photos. A little more info about how long to leave the brace on and how to set up an isolation brooder would be useful.
Good clear article. I've partially failed at this before. The young chap still ended up with a bit of a limp. Something like this might have worked better.
