Hey guys I have a newly hatched chick and it looks like there is a toe on each foot that has curled so it's under the foot. What can I do for the little guy and do you have any pictures of how you fixed yours
 
I’ve never hatched out chicks but I’ve heard of the band-aid method. Wrap it on the toes so they stick out straight. If I were home I’d send a picture from Storey’s guide to chickens. Someone will come along and tell you more information than my bird brain.
 
do you have a picture of the feet and legs. Is it curled toes or splay leg? What are you using for bedding on the bottom of the brooder? Mine could not walk with the toe curled but once I applied the boot made of tape straightening the toe it walked fine.
