Chick with gimpy leg

[f8thnjc]

We hatched 11 eggs this weekend. One of the chicks came out of the shell with a hurt leg. We don't know what is wrong with him. He doesn't put pressure on it at all. He just hops around on one foot. He is only 2 days old, so I was hoping that he would get better quickly, but hes not.

Any ideas what would be wrong with him. He is some kind of Polish.

You should look up spraddle leg on here. There is a thing that you can do with a band aid.

yeah, I know that is not it. He stands normally, then when he goes to take a step, he just doesn't use one foot. I know that it hurts him, because when we pick him up, he hollers like crazy. He gimps around as if a person would if they sprained their foot...
