3rd Silkie with a problem

[SilkiesnFrizzle]

this is the third one that I took on to care for, this one is a 1 to 2 month old silkie that has severe spraddle leg. it's pretty bad and I don't know what to do for it if I should band it with like a rubber band or since it's a little older ,( not being babybchick) has it's bones grown like that will it be able to stand at all I'm making a sling for it with a water and a feeder cups hooked up to the front where the hits will be.

The window for fixing leg and feet issues is in the first two weeks. Now, it's unlikely to help.

Yeah, I was afraid of that.
They are so bad that they stick out in front of him.

So sorry about that! I don't really know what you can do about that. My friend has owned many silkies (I believe 8 or 9 in total) but most of them died and she only has 2 now. I don't think silkies have great genetics from all that breeding to make them look fluffy, so don't blame yourself.
