2 day old chick with curled toes standing on tippy toes HELP!

[XSCHICKS]

Looking for some help / suggestions if there is anything more i can do to help this chick walk better. I made it little splint booties and it is seperate from the rest of the chicks but now it wants to stand on its tippy toes? Also having a hard time feeding it? Trying to feed a little scrambled egg since I read that it had B2 also giving it Durvet Electrolyte that has Riboflavin (B2) in it with an eye dropper and she likes that but just worried about her standing on the tippy toes any one with any experience with this and tricks. She is super healthy and strong otherwise trying to give her a chance.

Thank you I did read that link it was super informative I have done everything on there just not sure how fast I should be seeing progress. She's definitley better just worried if it takes much longer getting food into her. I am giving her liquid with suringe right now and she likes that but hasn't eaten much.

She looks PRECIOUS!
Sorry, just had to get that out, she's adorable!
It sounds like she'll be fine, I'm sure the strange walking is just her getting used to the large apparatus on her feet haha. You can offer her foods that are treats, like scrambled eggs, yogurt, etc. and see if she'll eat that better.

Once you take off the splints and her toes aren't curled anymore I'm sure she'll be perfectly healthy.

Thank you emmaaie ! I hope so I took them off today, one was getting a little twisted and her left leg is definitly worse Im just worried she's still not walking without assistance I have her propped up with rolled up tube socks like bumpers and she can back up to the corners and hold herself up a little but still not walking on her own and she's not really able to wiggle to get up without assistance Poor little thing, She is super cute a salmon favorelle I have been waiting for these eggs and this hatch forever, hope she's ok. Thanks again

Thank you everyone for your responses, but in anyones experience should this be getting progressively better seems like she just keeps standing on her tippy toes and still not walking? The actual toes look much better and one foot is hardly curled at all and the other about 50% improvment. I am still giving her liquid with a suringe but she hasn't really eaten anything. Does it get worse before it gets better? Last night she could stand a few seconds without me holding but not she can't at all do they just get tired? Seems healthy otherwise but not sure if there is something else I should be doing
