My 2 day old chick wasn’t walking and always had it’s wings out. After reading many posts, I realized it most likely had double slipped tendons. I believe I got them popped back into place and wrapped his legs. Since both of them are wrapped, I don’t know whether I should lay it in the brooder or what. It is separated from the rest of the chicks, but it looks so uncomfortable with both of its legs back. I read about chick chairs, but I get worried it would get too hot or too cold in it.
What should I do? Is it okay if it lays in the brooder with both legs behind it? The chick tries to crawl around when it is in there on its stomach. How long should I keep its legs wrapped? It also keeps its legs spread really far apart, do I attempt to fix that while it’s legs are wrapped, or after that problem is fixed? I just feel so bad for this little guy! Any advice or help would be awesome!
