spraddle leg not resolving with bracing

[jessleeh]

Help! I have a chick with spraddle leg that's 1 1/2 weeks old. We've braced her legs since we brought her home and it seemed to be working in the beginning, but IN THE BRACE, she's managed to twist her leg around backwards. We've tried mini rubber bands linked together and vet tape, both around the lower part of her leg.
#1 is there anything else we can try?
#2 she can hobble around... what kind of life will she have?

It sounds more like a rotated femur than splay or spraddle leg. Here are a couple of threads to read: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/...femur-going-to-avian-vet-tomorrow-please-read
