Ok, I have posted a few questions about my chick that was born with a messed up leg. I think it's either a tendon problem or a twisted tibia. It's wrapped and doing very well! However, all the advice I had received from the board was very sad. A lot of responses said it likely would not live and I should think about culling it. What I really want is a story that ends happily..come on folks....I need some hope to carry us through. I need to make a chick shoe for her today, but she is using the leg as much as she can. She eats and drinks and poops very well. She is 2 weeks old today! Oh, and I will also mention that she is an only chick..the only egg that hatched!
