Injured Baby Chick

[Chicks2Chickens]

Hello everyone. So, my uncle and I were waiting for our chicks to hatch. 8 out of 32 have hatched.. But some are taking longer and we've already had to bury three. One of the chicks that hatched, I noticed, could not moves its right leg. At all. It looks like it doesn't have the joint to move it. It hops around.

Will it survive?

Anyone?

Ooh, I had two chicks with leg problems. They began to get weaker and then we had to put an end to their suffering. Poor things.
But! If it learns to walk and you help it and maybe keep it for a pet it may turn out alright

Is it noticeably smaller than the other chicks?

Is it smaller then the other chicks?? A picture might help me a bit

Not really. Actually, it has improved a significant amount. It can eat and drink by itself. I was just worried about predators when the chick gets older.
