No splinting. Just cut out two little pieces of soft cardboard like little duck feet, position the chick's feet with aligned toes on top and then fix the toes with a little strip of medical tape to the cardboard like a snow shoe.Okay, I will keep that in mind! like I said this is our first time so when the other three are already walking normally and this one has different feet, we got very scared. If by day 3/4 the chick still looks like this, should we splint?
Use medical tape as this has to be taken off every 4-5 days and done anew as the chick's feet grow very quickly and might otherwise get deformed. Medical tape will keep the toes in place and when taking it off, will not tear the chick's skin off like some other tapes will.
