Splayed legs. Take care of it before the chick gets any older. It can be fixed. I have used vet wrap or tape (sticky side out) to keep the legs together. Make sure it's not on a slippery surface. How old? Might want to get it some electrolytes too.
My mom said she tried to fixing chicks with splayed legs before but it always made it worst. She/he is about 3 days old. What are electrolytes?

I've had success treating splay leg.

They basically just give the chick a boost. I make my own - mix water, sugar, salt and baking soda. I forget the exact amount, but can look it up if you want.
