Day old chick with curled toes

[dartmouthchicken]

I have a day old hatched by a broody. She has curled toes and cannot walk. Is there anything I can do? I would like to leave her with mama is possible.

Here it is, I hope it helps and good luck! Congrats on the hatch as well! I used this method, and you would never know they had it.https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/how-to-fix-curled-toes-in-chicks.1250947/#post-20068689

I don't know if you can leave her with her mama while under treatment but I had great success with chick shoes in a problem chick from my first hatch.
