Hii! I’m sorry to be asking. This quail, I thought it wasn’t going to make it. It was the only yellow colored quail I got, so from birth I wanted to help it make it. However, he used to fall sideways all the time when first hatched and I thought it would pass. Well it’s two weeks old now. But since about a week ago it keeps its leg up in the air or stretches it all the way out, dragging around. I’m unsure of what this is… I thought might be sprayed leg but now I’m doubtful. I have a video, but it won’t let me post it. So there’s pictures

How old is it? It could possibly be a vitamin deficiency. I have a chick that curls it's head down because of vitamin e deficiency, so maybe it's a different vitamin for yours. You can buy vitamins and electrolytes at Theisens I know. If it is splayed legs, I use electrical tape to help them learn to walk.
