    Hen with injured foot - help please

    3 day old chick with a bad leg - photos

    If someone can help I'd really appreciate it. I have 4 baby chicks. They're 2 days old. I noticed this morning that one of them has a problem with his leg. From attempting to feather sex I believe he is a male. Anyway, he can't seem to put any pressure on it. He hobbles around but can't...
