You can fix the curled toes easily. We use duct tape! Straighten out the toe, wrap the bad ones once straight, but not too tight. We changed the tape every other day, for 4 days. Nice toes now! That was with a hatch a while back. This tape didn't cause irritation, probably because we changed it. We also made sure that we kept a hard surface for a while, no cedar for about a week. Really helped I'm sure.
Might want to give it a try.
Sorry you aren't having as good a hatch with the Silkies..maybe you will see something soon?
Good luck on everything, and congrats on the good hatch!!
You can only straighten out the toe in the 1st few days after hatched while it still soft.
True that! Good catch Speedy! How did I forget to mention that?
