Hi I’m new!!

[Jenessa_09]

Hi my name is Jenessa, I am new here! So I got this chick today and it’s having trouble walking, it doesn’t have splayed legs so we put some Band-Aids on its feet. How long would it take for its legs to heal? Also, I don’t know what breed this chick is! They are curled up and he is not using them. I will take a picture tell me if I’m doing it right.

again this is my first post thanks!

Hello, Jenessa, and welcome to BYC. Sometimes if caught early enough the little cardboard shoes can straighten crooked toes.

Do you buy them or do you make them on your own? And I don’t know how old this chick is!

Welcome! I believe you can use some first aid tape and tape the toes to the cardboard “shoe”. Glad you joined!

Is it possible just to use the bandaid’s or tape?? That’s currently what we have right now! Thanks for all the advice guys!!
