His feet seem sort of curled.

Here is a video of trying to get him to walk.

You're having a wierd hatch, from what I'm reading.
If it's your flock, what's their diet?
Where are these eggs from?
Is the temperature and humidity calibrated on your incubator?

This was from this morning and I can see his curled toe

Not really. I set 41 eggs.
2 didn't develop.
39 into lockdown.
2 eggs didn't hatch
1 died mid hatch on Monday
1 died this morning
Now this one.
Everyone that has moved over is healthy and happy.

Are these shipped eggs?

No. Are you hatches 100% of what you set on day one? I'm asking about this chicks feet.

I'm asking the questions I'm asking to determine what caused this and if it can be fixed.
Can the leg extend? Can he grip with his feet?
You've had two chicks with malformations out of a single hatch, that's not typical.
Malformation can be the result of:
Too high humidity.
Health/nutrition of the parent flock.
Eggs shaken during shipping.

And others would ask you these questions as well to determine the best outcome for the chick.

Can you get some Poultry Cell tonic and give a drop or two twice a day? Use vitamins with electrolytes or SaveAChick if you don’t have the Poultry Cell. Those can be very helpful for curled feet or walking problems.

The leg cannot extend fully. He's walking on his hocks.
My other chick wasn't malformed.

This one seems to have very short legs. 34 other chicks are happy and healthy.
