Hi. Three days ago, I purchased a three-day old Rhode Island Red chick from the local feed store. She had an injured leg, and I figured they would cull her if no one bought her, so I bought her. The store attendant informed me that it was most likely a slipped tendon. I got her a Polish Crested companion of about the same age and took them home. Both chicks are eating, drinking and pooping. They seem perfectly happy, but I was wondering if the injured one would be alright. I've tried slipping the tendon back into place and stretching it, but neither seemed to work. Is it possible that she'll be able to live without this problem being fixed, or will it get infected and kill her? Any help is greatly appreciated.Thank you so much! :
