I got 4 mire chicks from tractor supply, 2 bantams and 2 those island reds. Me being the “empath“ I am, I got one who was lethargic and holding his wings out for balance. He had pasty but as well, and he eats and drinks but I think he has a leg issue becisse he walks on his hocks. sometimes normal walking, but I don’t really know how to treat it. I did get rid of the party butt and he’s ok. the walking must be hard beciase his crop was empty and its odd. I got them from tractor supply and my usual lady was there. one had a broken leg but I dont have the time to take care of one with a broken leg. I was just wondering what could it be and what can I do to treat it? I gave him some silver just in case there’s any sickness and some water, although he was kind of refusing water. Thanks so much guys and I’ll post pics soon!


OH and his wings are like relaxed, like they’re nit dragging but they’re low
