    Crushed foot - advice needed

    Crushed foot - advice needed

I was even moving the only toe that still moved (but doesn’t feel like it’s actually connected to anything :/ ) when trying to see if there was a point she’d react, I even tried to carefully move that bent toe thats 90 degrees. But nothing and when I put her down...

    Any guesses on breed?

    Little update, the red chick seems to be a New Hampshire red based on how fast she’s developing her feathers, thoughts? She’s 2 weeks old now
