Foot problem

[Paula 53]

Hi all my 10 day old chick had a really bad spradle right leg we tap d it up to her left been for about 4 days checking it every morning but now her leg seems much better stood on it really good now but the problem is her right foot now sticks out to the side and not in front any advice please I’m so pleased with how well she has done with her leg.

It MAY be that her foot will always be off a bit. One of my Cochin Bantam chicks has toes that are turn to the side on both feet, and despite my taping them repeatedly from the time she was a few days old, her toes did not straighten out, only the one longest toe on one foot.

She's more than six weeks old now, and Maxie's feet look awful. But, it doesn't seem to bother her; yesterday she stole a grape from the biggest bird in the chick run -- a Bielefelder who is easily twice her size and ran away before Liesl could steal it back.

Good luck with your girl!
