Major chick issue please help!

Yeah I’ll get some but this is about the best pic I can get. More angles I don’t think will tell much.

Trust me, more pictures will help. A video wold be good too. Can you do a video?

Can the chick stand at all, or does the leg bend at the joint? I haven’t seen a lot of leg issues personally. But varus and valgus deformities are common, as well as twisted tibias.

I don’t think I can do a video. Any like DIY things I can do to save the chick?

No it can’t.

Can you feel if the tendon is slipped?

Slipped Tendon is also called Perosis.

If i were you i would probably get some more photos like the people above are suggesting. Best to treat it early and it’s hard to tell quite what you’re looking at by the photo provided.

No it can’t.

I think you may need to cull it, more photos are definitely needed

I splinted mine, hers went out sideways though but she healed up within a few days.

Not sure if that would work for yours or not

Thanks. I will post more pictures in the morning.

The chicks health has overall declined and I'm thinking I'm going to have to put it down. I think it was deformed and doesn't have a chance. I tried splitting it like @Chicken poppy said but the egg continues to move back.
