Hi Everyone
I’m new here.
Two of our babies hatched yesterday. One of our chooks has taken on of the babies and attacked it. We found him in the bushes with his little leg bloody and not moving. I have separated the mother and the two chicks and hoping the rest will still hatch.

What do I do with the hurt baby. The vets are all closed. I have put him half under his mother and water him from the dropper every few hours.

Do I make a splint? Or is it likely he will die?
 
It is possible also that lil guy will recover on his own...:hugs
If you post pix of injury , others may have suggestions.
It is good that you separated mom and remaining eggs as well.
WISHING YOU BEST..... and :welcome
