from what i've been able to research, it seems like my chick has a slipped tendon. The joint is swollen and the leg / foot is set at 90 degrees. This didn't exist (or at least I didn't notice it) when they arrived. She is also about half the size of the other chicks which tells me she is not getting near the same amount to eat.
Most of the discussions revolve around week old or less chicks. Is it too late to do anything for this one? Can I still try to "fix" the tendon and then wrap the leg?
thanks in advance for any help and suggestions.
