How to Fix Curled Toes in Chicks

[casportpony]

I want to thank you. I used painter's tape instead of masking tape because that's what I had and I figured it was close. So now I got a baby walking around with blue feet.
But mine's right around a month old, hopefully this still works.
I'm new to chicken keeping and I didn't realize this was something I needed to watch for, I got these chicks from my local Rural King.

Welcome to BYC, and you're welcome! Let me know if it works. I have not been able to fix toes perfectly on older ones, but hopefully, you'll have better luck.

As long as they're not curled up and making it horribly difficult for it to walk I'm happy. I just wish I had paid attention sooner.
Unfortunately this learning curve is going to hurt the bird.

This is the only picture I got I will take another picture on Monday or Tuesday when I take it off to see how we're doing.
Only two of the toes were curled. The middle toe and the outside toe. On both feet. It seems to be walking a little better, I don't know the sex yet but I'm hoping that it's a female since it's the only one that a Plymouth Rock.
