This is a cochin bantam chick I think.
He is 5 days old now. From the day he was hatched he had this little featherless patch on his head and a leg limp.
The patch is almost gone now. But his left leg shows no signs of improving.

I tried taping it and using a rubber band with a straw (like this) without trying to hurt him but does not look like that's helping.

Full album here: (can get more pictures on request)

This video will show in more detail what's happening:

Please let me know if there's anything we could do to help him

PS: Also let me know if I identified his breed wrong (Here are his father and mother)
