My six week old chicken is still having problems with her leg today. She can sort of stand and balance but has trouble walking. Her left leg seems to fall out to the side starting at the knee joint. And when I hold her on her back her right leg will be straight but the left one falls over to the side. I can't tell if it is broken. Should I try to splint it back into place and if so how do I do that? Her leg is not paralyzed because she will curl the toes of the bad leg around my finger and I believe she can move the leg, just not very well. She is eating a lot and drinking fine.
