turkey poult

[SilverSage]

I have a turkey poult that hatched out yesterday in my incubator. It was under a turkey hen until the last 10 days or so of the incubation. It should have hatched last Thursday. My question is, it won't stand up or walk. It tries, but doesn't have much luck. Will this work itself out, or does it need to be put down?

Thanks!

Legs and feet are fine and it's perfectly willing to eat and drink!

I'll give it a bit and see how it does. Thanks!

It is the only turkey, but since it's kind using it's legs better and is all dry, I went ahead and put it in with a few chicks that I have that are a couple days old. It tries to keep up with them, so I hope that will encourage the legs to improve.
