I'm a first time chick owner. My 2 day old chick seems to only walk short distances and then lay down. She doesn't stand around like the others. When she walks I can't tell if the leg is pushing out, it doesn't seem to be. But when she lays down one of her legs is always pushed out to the side, and she rarely sleeps with her legs under her like the others. I placed paper towel on top of pine shavings to help her walk better which seems to have helped abit. She is more mobile this morning. I'm just wondering if this sounds like sprayed leg? The picture shows how she is usually laying down.
