8 have hatched. One is walking on hocks. Any ideas? So reluctant to cull, as it's one of only 2 girls :(
The legs don't seem splayed?

I think she might look slightly stronger. Your comments are reassuring. She is 1 day old.
Looks fine to me. I've had a few hobble around like like that for a few days before gaining complete balance.
Do you have a video of the chick walking?
 
Relief. This is my first proper hatch. Last time I tried I only got 1/6. This time I am on 6/9 already.
I understand that. I believe most of us has been there.
