Ouch! Dislocated, maybe? Hard to tell with those tiny bones though. Geez, poor little peep!

I tentatively posted both my roos in a local chicken group as a take your pick. Surprisingly there has been interest, especially in the youngster who is quite flashy with his iridescent black and gold/cream. And a lady who might want them both since they coexist... though I'm not sure I want to give up BokBok.

Hock. Feels like something is broken. I set it and wrapped it. This was an April chick

It looks like a slipped tendon. All you can do is push everything back into place and wrap it like you've done. Hoping for the best! I've only dealt with it once and I wasn't successful fixing it myself.

It is amazing to be able to see them moving inside the egg.
