Help, broken leg

[Lisawbsn]

I succumbed to this sweet little girls plight tonight at F&F. Staff said they would give her to me so now I have a 3? Day old chick with a broken leg. Any advice? I splinted it. No she’s not alone, I took the last cuckoo Maran to keep her company.

Can you see the break? Any broken skin?

When you change the dressing, please get some photos. Thanks!

No broken skin, I can feel a small deformity but wondering if maybe a birth defect? Lower leg turns out a bit. I splinted from bend in leg to under foot. Toes pink and warm no edema or redness noted.

If the leg is turned out, she may have a leg bone deformity(?)
Something to look at anyway. I would also give her 1/4 tablet B-Complex once a day, the B2 (Riboflavin) may help with leg issues.
