    Because the bones are not even close to being aligned, unless I opt for surgery which I don't have a spare 1k and more for, the hope is that the ends of the bone will calcify. I have added a lot more calcium into their diet so we will see how it helps with an updated x-ray in a month or so.

    I took a wood box crate and lined the floor, sides, and roof with 2 inch insulation foam. I have a solar light for them and a solar fan for ventilation. Wooden crate box was free, the foam was free from buy sell trade, the siding was leftover picese for free and the wood was leftover scrap.
