Help! 2 day old Bantam only standing on one leg

[3kidsandaduck]

Hi Everyone. I have a 4 day old D'uccle chick that's holding one leg up and out. He/she has been doing it since I got him. He hobbles around if he needs to move but is particularly unsteady. If one of the other chicks (he's one of 5) bumps into him he falls right over. Even when he's resting the leg still sticks out and he never puts weight on it. He lays down in the food to eat . i've attached a picture.

Im not sure what to do any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Is the joint swollen?
Possibly slipped tendon since the leg sticks out all the time?

It does not seem to swollen or red at all. If it is a slipped tendon, what's the best treatment? Should I try and get him to the vet?

If it came that way you could have gotten one with a broken leg, if that's the case spilt it & but it in a solo place to heal up.

Can you get a photo of the leg and joint?
Does the leg bend at all?

Question: where did you get these?
i have some d'uccle too, but mine have blue/ gray feet. Now I'm questioning what my chicks are! Lol​

Could have gotten one with a broken leg, wich you eould splint, but it could also be a leg defirmity. Could we see a video of how he walks? It may help clarify his condition more.

It bends at the hip area but not the joint. I can straighten if but it seems painful and is very stiff
