Noticed a chick limping two days ago and after reading up I think its a slipped tendon. He is gimpy but gets around and is eating and drinking. I have tried to tape it but am having a hard time getting it into place as the tendon is very tight. Is this something she will live with?? Not sure what else to do for her. Any ideas or experience with this ??

What can you actually see?
 
Left leg sticks out a little. Leg joint is swollen. No open injuries. Gets along but not as active as others.
