(Sorry scared new Mama here....lol...) My very first chick just hatched at just before 11pm EST last night so it is almost 12 hours old now. It really isnt trying to walk much yet. Its flopping all over the place and moving but not really standing yet. I was under the impression that chicks will be able to walk fairly soon after hatching. His/her legs do seem to be going to the outside a bit but not a lot. I dont know if its a normal thing and he/she just needs a little more time or if I should start looking into how to help him/her if they do have Splayed Legs? Here are some pictures of our sweet little one.
Just seconds old...
