Is there anything I can do to treat this chick? Outside of going to a vet I am willing to invest hours and effort, I can build slings, hobbles, trusses, I just need to know how to treat the issue.

I posted about a splay legged chick I had and since...
Looking for breeders of White Cornish large, a heritage long growth bird. Heavy legged and full breasted.
Anyone know of any breeders? I'd like to invest in some hatching eggs.
Anyone have a line on breeders and reliable sources for chicks or hatching eggs? I have a breeder close to me who will be selling a starter breeding flock in spring, but I'd like to put less of an investment into a breed before I decide if I want to go forward with breeding and keeping them.
This is my rooster Rex, when I bought him I was told he was a blue laced red wyandotte, well, he's obviously not that, I've been told he's a black laced red and another person said they think he's a gold laced rooster.
I'm leaning towards black laced wyandotte but he does have golden lacing...
If any of you breed these gorgeous birds or know of a reputable breeder, please drop me a line. I'm looking to add some heritage/unique and rare birds to my collection.

We're starting up a small hobby farm and I would love to add these more rare heritage breeds to my flock.
I want to purchase from solid, breed smart and reputable breeders, if I can find any near new england it would be preferable, but if packed correctly eggs can be shipped from anywhere...
I am building my bigger coops this week for my Wyandottes and Bresses and I am wondering, is it safe to use Flex-Seal on the floor for traction and weather proofing? From what I can tell it's a non-toxic aerosol type of rubber.
Thanks in advance for any and all info, help, suggestions etc...
