Help! Broken Leg on 2 day old Chick

[Chickenchild33]

I seperated the chick from the others, it seems relatively normal minus the fact its legs is stuck in one place, it scoots around in the box we have it in. We use soft pine bedding, the chick eats and drinks fine, but it was stuck in its egg for some time. The chick cries out in pain if the leg is moved. Please help!

It's likely not broken but has a slipped tendon.

Assuming the leg is falling behind her body and not to her side?

Im only 13, and i dont really know if her leg is broken or if its a different issue. But would a picture help?

Can you get some other pictures of the chick standing and from different angles so we can see how exactly it’s leg is messed up?

slipped tendon, Help the chicken to exercise that leg, give it time and protect it from the other chicks as they will slowly kill the lame chicken. Our slipped chick tendon healed and she is strong and normal.

Holding a chick on their back can cause them to aspirate, try not to hold them that way. Though i’m not to sure what’s wrong, sorry to hear she hurt her leg.
