This chick hatched yesterday and it's unable to stand, it just sits on its butt and hocks. It was hatched in an incubator so It wasn't crushed. I would like some help with this please

Is the floor of your incubator just slick plastic?This my first time trying to hatch chickens so I tried to have them hatched naturally with the parent but they kept adding eggs and there were to many so a lot of them are at different stages. I decided to get an incubator to take care of some of them, and currently there is one that is doing fine with the mom and a bunch didn't make it since they got crushed by the parent, only one has hatched from the incubator so far and it's the one with the leg problem
Aw, that's great![Update] I took off the band-aid today and now it can walk, also another hatched last night with curled toes, I put shoes on its feet to help with that. 2 chicks are hatching in the incubator currently
Also, where are your eggs from and do you have info about the parent birds? This many foot/leg issues is not normal which makes me wonder what the cause is.[Update] I took off the band-aid today and now it can walk, also another hatched last night with curled toes, I put shoes on its feet to help with that. 2 chicks are hatching in the incubator currently
