HELP CHICK NOT WALKING RIGHT

[alicedaveney]

okay so i’m not sure if i’m being to worried over this but my chick is walking on one foot weird

it’s all curled up underneath instead of flat

the foot will go flat if you make it but the chick wants to walk on it curled

should i leave it be and hope it fixes itself or try to help it?

p.s. the chick only hatched today

Unless you do something about it now his foot won't uncurl on its own. As soon as he's dried off, I would make him a boot to wear for a few days and get him some vitamins.
