Here is my chick that is 1 week old now. (Shipped from MPC) I treated her for curled toes by putting a chick boot on her (coardboard and bandaid) for a few days. She still does not like to walk on the foot. Is that normal or should I be doing more?

I also became aware of a condition called slipped tendon and wanted to make sure that i am not treating her for the wrong thing.

I'm curious how this turned out and what all you did? I have a four day old chick now that I intially treated for curly toes and what I thought was splay leg bc he couldn't walk. I put shoes on him and did cup therapy which worked wonders for the other two with actual splay leg, but not him. It made no difference at all. It wasn't until yesterday that I finally realized that he actually had slipped tendons and curly toes. The boot fixed the toes, but I'm still working on the tendons. His legs are in splints and I have him in a chick seat/sling that In a cup. Praying for a full recovery for him.
