PLEASE HELP!!

I would be giving the chick B complex vitamins or chick vitamins and food/water now. Those can be of help with leg problems. But I think the right leg may have a bone deformity that may not be able to be corrected. Some chicks can get along even with a disability. Varus valgus deformity can occur in one or both legs. A twisted leg is also possible. The two chicks in the pictures below did not survive after the owners tried splinting and other measures.

Thank you for all the advice. I had a feeling it could of been a bone deficiency by the shape of the leg. I just wished there was something I could of done to help e.g hobbled or splints but after reading the articles I think they may do more harm or cause pain. I will leave it a few days and see how it gets on but I have a feeling I may have to cull :hit

Don't Give up to easily! Birds are pretty strong birds and there even some that were born blind and survived. Keep and eye on her the next few days and if she's getting food and water she should be good. Keep us updated please.
