Luna My Chick has a curled toe and can't stand properly......!

Hi All,
My light Sussex Chick is 2 days old and we had to help her hatch, because her membrane was too dry and she couldn't get out same with my other lavender Sussex chick.
The lavender one is absolutely stunning and is healthy and no signs of anything wrong, but my light Sussex has a curled like foot and she kinda hobbles around she does fall over sometimes.

I made her some feet brace things to spread her feet apart and seems to walk a bit better but I think she may have the spaddle leg thing, because she walks on her hind leg part not her feet and she can't stand like the others... WHAT DO I DO.?

Tie her legs so they are closer, but NOT TOO CLOSE. Also do some research and they’ll tell you how to do it. Act now before it’s too late, it’s fixable.

For her curled tow you can make a Sandler to help correct it. Cut a piece of cardboard to the size of the foot. Put the toes straight on top and use a band-aid to secure the foot to the cardboard piece. Leave for about 36hours and it should fix the toe. It'll look like of like a little shoe or sandle, just make sure to carefully put the toes correctly on the cardboard piece then secure.

I don't know how to help Luna someone help me...
She is so uneven on her feet I have put the feet things on so her toes aren't curled. What about her legs I think she may have splayed leg but I don't know how to fix what do I tie with I'm only 14....

Hey, take a regular band-aid and cut it in half. Put the white part in the center then carefully put her legs normal width apart. Wrap each extra side of band-aid around each leg just above the feet.
