2 day old chick has a leg that just started acting weird

[tberggren]

any idea's what the problem could be?
It sticks it out like the joints won't bend.

Is there some nutritional issue I am missing, they are on Purina's Start and Grow. they had the gro gel the first day, some sugar in the water yesterday and today.

Thanks for your help

May have spradle leg. If one is sticking out, that's what it is. Use a bandaid to splint them together for a week. It works.

This little guy will be 7 weeks old on Saturday and he's crowing already!
