Chick boot ideas

[Eggcessive]

Try to hold the chick up and have someone take a picture of her legs from the front. Also, describe the legs and feet, and if either toes are curled under.

Good news is i taped it and i think it may actually help her

Bad news is two of the birds are crazy about pecking at her feet now

Was the tape too shiny? Would bandade cause them to peck less cause of color?

They kinda left her alone after a while. I gave them tuna thinking the b12 will help. I took the tape off and will try again with some thinck paper under it and spread the toes more.

Some of the other ones don't always walk with their ankles bent and stand straight up but they will sometimes, is that normal?

 

[Overthinker]

Do i need to tape the ankes so they bent 90*?

Mixed them up some vitamin water with riboflavin in it. Guess it's not good to give them too much so I'll switch back to water tonight or tomorow

This stuff

Maybe their food is no good, I'll buy different food tonight

Welp, i had been putting their "crumbles" in a nutra bullet because they were so big, then I'd leave the left overs on the desk and I guess the sun destroyed the riboflavin and they are deficient. Also I got the food a month a ago and it wasn't so fresh probably. So i gave them tuna and vitamin water and fresh food.

Seen them stretching and I guess that should have been a warning.

Hope I get it resolved, a few are acting deficient now
