I have a chick with the same problem. I asked about it here. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=333278

Then someone also linked to another helpful thread in the first reply and theres a good picture in the second one.

Good luck.

Yes, follow those links to read up on the issue and to find a solution.

Also note - either you are seeing a genetic issue with curled feet OR there were humidity issues in the incubation.

I had the same problem, and followed the link above to make boots, and now Kevin is a lively 6 week old.

I booted a curly toed Dutch bantam, and after 3 days, the shoe fell off, and s/he was totally fine. I even forgot which one it was!
