    Please help!!!

    No, the toes don’t curl, they almost seem crushed, she barely flexes them at all. I can’t get her to move much unless the other chicks are around her but they are a few days older than her and have much more energy and tend to jump and stand on her, so it kind of seems pointless to keep any of...

    I try to always leave her right beside them but she does end up moving away from them a little on her own. Thank you for your encouragement! I really hope she will be okay! Tuesday she was moving around pretty decently, but it seems like the more rest she gets the less she wants to move so I...

Upon reading a lot of previous threads with a lot of similar stories, I’ve isolated her and used vet tape to wrap the affected leg.

    Possible Injured Chick

    Here is a couple pictures of her, the black australorp. Can’t really see her moving well but she can’t stand to eat or drink, just lies down. And when she does hop her wings go out and seem really unsteady too

    Possible Injured Chick

    Hey y’all, I’m new to BYC but my family has used it forever when they first got chickens 15+ years ago. I just got some chicks Monday (5 Easter eggers and one black australorp) and one is probably a day or two younger than the rest, so she is significantly smaller than them. I noticed...
