I guess it deformed because he did not use them for a while (his neck was on the ground but it fixed) he is older on month. Maybe 2
 
Welcome to BYC!

Sorry to hear about your chick. There are several types of leg deformities in poultry, each one is treated differently.

Would you mind taking a few photos of the chick and posting them here? A video would be great as well.

His feet shakes sometimes. He can feel them. When he was little he was using them but his neck was on the floor so he was moving back. But he could walk. Then he didnt walked for a while cause his neck. We didnt let him then his legs become like this. We do exercises but we dont know what else to do
 
It could've been a spinal injury or deformation. If he had a lack of neck function that could also be caused by a problem with the spine. He might have partial paralysis, in which case there's nothing you can really do. Do you keep him in a chick chair?

We dont actually he is always laying down. We made a hanging thing for him but he hates it and screams so he is laying down ıll search how to make one
 
Okay, just keep making sure his feet are being used (by doing excessive or massaging them). You don't want them to weaken any more by allowing all the muscles to disappear. That could also lead to more serious issues concerning blood constriction and just a ton of health problems.
