I have a 3 day old chick who needed assisting with hatch as it was shrink wrapped. Its feet are also facing towards each other. Not malleable or able to orient in correct anatomical position. Toes are also hyper flexible. It can walk but.. how do I help it? I’ve got it on B12 supplements and will get it some riboflavin but anything besides that?
 
You need B 2 or riboflavin, not B12. Get human B complex which has that and give 1/4 tablet daily. B12 only has B 12. Get some pictures of the legs and feet. Read up on slipped tendons and leg bone deformities (varus or valgus deformity, or rotated tibia in chicks.
