Quail Leg Problem

[Nicky1364]

I hatched some quails yesterday they hatched
one of the quails had something wrong with its legs its behind it i tried making the quail stand but it goes back to the same postion i put a brace on its legs but it will do nothing by the looks of it because the legs go behind it

any advice

you can also try placing it in a small cup to strengthen its legs and keep them in the correct position but sometimes these issue cannot be fixed

This is why I did, put some paper towel bits in a shot glass and kept the chick in there for a few hours, let it out to eat and drink. Keep doing this for a day or two, it will help.

I had this happen with my recent hatch. I tried to fix it, but unfortunately the chick didn't thrive and grew weak and died. Sometimes it works, but sometimes they don't thrive. I really hope yours can be fixed I second the cup idea.
