This lil baby was hatched via incubator yesterday along with 3 siblings. All silkies and shipped eggs.
The lil black one has not walked normal since hatching...it leans to the side and sort of hobbies.
Here's a couple Videos - please advise what I need to do.
If u need more info please let me know.
 
I turned lil baby on its back to try to determine if legs are same length and what not.
The left leg lays straight out whereas the right leg is curled up underneath body.
I didn't want to tug at all on the right side and just sort of watched as it was on its back.

Hey maybe it was curled in the egg and needs time to adjust? That's another possibility.
