I have a month old peachick that has a dislocated or broken wing. What can I do to help it? I noticed it yesterday but I think it’s had it since I first got it. The breeder was a little rough when trying to catch it. I’ve noticed the dropping wing but didn’t think to investigate because the breeder said the wings are heavy so it hard for them to keep them tucked in.

I think the line keeping the feathers together broke while the breeder was being rough and I think you should not mess with it a lot, but I don't know a specific "splint you should put on him/her. You should tell the breeder their fault!
 
I tried it but it kept wiggling it off.
Update: took my peachick to the vet and she said it’s just an ingrown blood feather. I was amazed because it really looked like bone and then she ripped off the hard shiny callus and behold a feather lol wow I was so freaked out but relieved. She’s back home with her sister.
