Why not after 2 weeks old?

They start to hurt.

Is there a chance that very minor splay leg will correct itself? I have a chick that sort of has it...his stance is kind of wide, but he can walk and get around...should I wait to see if it straightens out or tape them?

I have tried several times to get pics but none of them will stand still..and when she does get still, she lays down

Her stance is slightly wider than the width of her body...

Got one!!!



There he is, right in the middle...he was the last chick I had to assist, whose egg was stuck to him. I ran him under warm water to get the shell and shrink wrapped membranes off...that's why he's not all puffy yet...I pretty sure the egg being stuck had something to do with his legs being this way...

And when he walks, they are a bit closer together...this is just the widest I have seen them so far.
