Our late to hatch chick seems to lean to one side and has the opposite leg out. Is this splayed leg? It doesn't look as severe as pictures I've seen of this issue. It seems to be fine and gets around well enough. It's only obvious when the chick stops moving. Any ideas?

Does it seem to bend the leg correctly? While they are little and light, they can hide leg issues. It's when they start getting heavier, they become more apparent, but less easy to correct. I'd probably put a little band aid on it for a bit, half a day or so, that would kinda force it to use both legs equally. I think it happens more with delayed hatchers.

The leg seems fine, i checked it up and down for breaks, or injuries but didn't notice anything. I will try a band aide
