This chick hatched yesterday after being helped out since it got stuck to it's shell. It hatched out with the toe like this, I waited until today to get pictures to give it a chance to fluff up and heal it's yolk sac a bit. The toe appears to be folded under the foot. I haven't ever had a chick with a toe like this, only some chicks with crooked toes in the past. I was thinking that maybe the toe could be put into normal position and wrapped so that it can sort of grow into the normal toe place, not sure if that would work though. Any tips?
