Chirping
Just had 2 hatch, and one seems underdeveloped and unable to stand. She has splayed legs and seems to be struggling to get one of them underneath her. One splays straight back, one to the side but she can get the side one under her if she tries. It’s been 24 hours since she hatched so I’ve been doing stretches, spending time holding her with the legs held in the correct position, etc. and it is improving. Should I tape them together with a spacer bar like splay-legged chicks? I’m an LVT, hubby’s a DVM, so we’re trying to devise the best way to help her. I’ve been offering her food and water every hour to keep her strong since she can’t get to it on her own. She is the offspring of our favorite duck and came out SO CUTE, so she means a lot to us. TIA!
