Poor chick in good health bad deformity in right foot...HELP?!?

[The_Silkie_Farm]

I’m definitely not trying to spend a fortune and can’t afford to...And btw, this is also not my first rodeo with chicks, chickens, old maids, multiple breeds, VET RX rescues DYI

, (I have my own farm and hatchery of my own this is just my first with a malformed baby chick and I do not have the heart to euthanize it or cut its head off!!! or anything like that that people are telling me...however, I am willing to see if it’s got a shot it’s killing me to watch it struggle in these moments!!! Again if there’s anybody out there that has any ideas or if it is just what it is and I need to euthanize it please please please if anyone does just let me know the truth.
thank you so much and God bless!!

I'm very sorry about the chick.
If you hatch chicks and have a farm - at some point you have to cull.
It really stinks, but something we all must face - it's reality.

For a chick this young, this is the best way to cull. I'm sorry.

Thank you so very much for your advice. luckily, I didn’t have to cull myself, the little sweetheart died on its own last night . It was definitely for the best. However, I’m grateful for your link and resource regarding culling because you are correct, at some point I’m going to have to do that but hoping not anytime soon but it’s best to know how to be prepared in the event. Thank you again.
