They do flop about for a bit after hatching sometimes. If he can't right himself up off his back after a while there could be some sort of issue. There's no dried membrane sticking his wing to his side is there?

I've also found it takes their toes a little while to straighten properly after hatching.

No. no dried membrane.
It's acting so much different to all the others though. Not sure what could be wrong.
I'll see how it is tomorrow.

Curly is relatively easy to fix. you will put paper tape. Now that the toes are still soft.
you will stick the foot on it, rearrange the toes to the right position maybe with a toothpick and close the tape on top. Like slippers. For a few days. Trim the edges carefully so it can walk. there are plenty of video on YouTube. It will be fine if that's it's only problem. Good luck 🤞

Ho yes. Only the 3 toes. Not the small one. If he can't stand he won't be able to eat
