For future reference I would like to recommend kinesio tape. It is supportive but still flexible enough to not cut off circulation on fast growing chicks. I had some left over from my daughter and used it on my chick as shoes and to hold a bandage on a leg, it worked great.

Webster does NOT like his new shoes and I've caught him/her several times walking on tippy-toes. I think the other chicks are jealous!

I will check his feet often to make sure circulation is not being cut off and reapply as needed. I'll keep you updated on his progress.
