It's an awful lot to read, especially for someone new.

Tashaf, are the toes curled up? Is the leg sticking out to the side? Maybe there's some sticky goo that has dried hard on the foot making it feel funny? If we can figure out wht's wrong, we might be able to find a fix.

thank you Wishing. I was still looking

Not sure if you can see the foot farthest away

It's a foot that is curled up looking.

what a cutie ! Maybe it just dont "have its legs" yet ? they walk on their haunches til they are a bit stronger sometimes.

I've always had great luck with chickens and this one was actually under my hen but got pushed out and was all dryed up and still curled up in a ball. I know sometimes the hen will kick out the week. So, I took it in and got her looking better but I'm just worried about her foot and if it will bother her too much.

I hope that's all it is!!! She's a fighter. She just doesn't look very strong.

I have never heard of a chick hatching with curled toes under a hen. Interesting. try dipping her beak in some sugar water and keep her warm til the am.
