Go to the UPA home page and under articles and there is a section for peachicks orthopedic by DC Townsend and she shows what you want to do and how to do it

I use a few 4" zip ries,,make a loop on each leg,then use the 3rd zip tie to hold the other two close.Put them on close to the feet and tight enuf they won't go up the leg but that normally isn't a problem,,I have in severe cases used 1 zip tie and more-less hog tied the legs together. Of course I help the chick drink and put him close to feed in front of his noze,but it seems if both legs are held together in this manner normally in 2 days it's fine and ready to go.
