    Baby chick hatched with twisted foot. Is it cruel to keep her?

    Advice please! We're currently looking after a 7 day old chick that hatched with a twisted foot. At 2 days old we noticed her foot and tried to make a little splint booty for it which helped her. She has been hopping on her good foot and sometimes using the elbow part of the bad leg to hobble...

    Chicken with "twisted" leg

    (Excuse how bad the video is) I have my baby chicken, Button, a blue splash silkie I rescued from a rural king supply, who I thought had just a injured wing and had lost hope, but turns out she has other complications. I, myself, thought this would all be easily handled. Wrap her leg, flatten...

    Chick with possible twisted leg/slipped achilles tendon

    I have a buff brahma bantam chick that is 5 days old and has seemed to have hatched with a deformed leg. I looked up what it could be immediately and kept coming across splayed leg, so I tried hobbling her and doing "physical therapy" using a drinking glass. The more I read about splayed leg...
