Silkie thread!

[fluffyfeathers]

I just had one with splay leg. I didn't notice till it was a little over a week old. I put the brace on and it had a really hard time with the brace for the first few days. Tripping a lot. But on the fourth day it had it figured out. I took the brace off on the sixth day and the chick is doing great. You can't even tell it previously had any problems I hope your chick does just as good!

Hi, last thursday our first ever silkie babies hatched

, 8 of them, but unfortunately 2 have problems with their legs, I know Ive seen this here before but honestly did not pay as much attention as should have done. What can I do? is there any remedy?

He is grey. Used to be called silver partridge. Here's a great thread for grey. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/478550/what-does-a-grey-silkie-look-like/10
