Hi Daniellelyn, unfortunately our chick did not make it!😭. I think we were to late in realising the problem and unfortunately she just couldn't walk on her leg and i think she just gave up. But i can say that i have spoken to other people who have had success with this method so please don't...
Seems to be ok at the momment? We put the tendon back in place and then taped it up it seems to of held in place for now but i will check on it in 24 hours to see whats happening and the tape is not to tight.
Hi all just wanted to show you my chick sling. I made this from a tall slim plant pot and a pair of my wifes socks. If you have any advise or questions please don't hesitate to post your thoughts thanks Phil.
Not quite sure without seeing the video but i think we have had chicks with a similar problem?
My wife cut up a drinking straw about 3 to 4 cms long and then attaches the two legs together with the straw in the middle and a piece of elastic hairband to go around the feet. I will try to get it on...
