Hi I have a gosling with curled toes and he can’t walk what do I do ? I’ve put his feet in plasters to keep in place but he keeps getting walked on in the brooder
Please help will he’s legs spleen in this position?

What feed are they on?

I would set up a second brooder for the little one, maybe with just one other gosling as a friend and start supplementing their water with a liquid B Vitamin complex and a liquid multivitamin like rooster booster poultry cell.

Also you might try this with the legs https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/splay-leg-and-spraddle-leg-treatment.78240/
He can’t walk with the little shoes on currently, should I wait until his feet are no longer curled then try that or do it straight away ? Thanks
