First time hatching experiencing difficulties!

Update this morning baby coco can’t walk, not sure what I can do for her...

Were you able to get a vitamin supplement for her? I don't know what may have caused her to go downhill. I'm so sorry.

I gave her some of the parrot one I compared ingredients and they were fairly similar. Yeah it seems it’s her right leg she won’t put any pressure on it. She just lays flat now just chirping. Been reading about chicken chairs and bandaids but I think her legs are just weak... any thoughts on what to do? She drinks the water with the vitamins in it and been forcing her to eat wet food (she barely eats) .. should I give vitamins directly ?

Can you get to a feed store and get some poultry nutridrench? I'm sorry about Coco, I really hope she bounces back from this

If she's already getting some of the vitamins that should be fine. Is the leg shooting out from under her at all? If it's splay leg you can use vet wrap/sports wrap to make a little hobble for her. From your images I didn't notice anything that looked like a slipped tendon but worst case, a chick sling is an option as well.

Yes I can do that!

Great! Get some Sav-A-Chick electrolytes too if you can.

Her legs seem to be directly under her and I didn’t notice anything besides the fact that she keeps them at different heights. 1 leg pulled in tight to body and other stretched out. The one she keeps right to body is the one that seems to be weaker.

I love Nutridrench but with leg concerns I would get Rooster Booster Poultry Cell, also sold at Tractor Supply or PolyVisol WITHOUT iron a liquid infant vitamin. Nutridrench doesn't have B2 riboflavin in it which is important for leg issues.

Can you take a video of her trying to walk? And pics of her feet (soles) and legs?

Oh, never used rooster booster, thanks for that. What if it turns it into a rooster?!?! lol
