One Footed Chick

Quote:
Dolls dolls dolls, they are all over the house as well as feet and shoes, I hope you find something that will work, the moleskin sounds interesting think next time I'm in town might get some for our ever growing emergency kit. Keep us updated and send out pics when you find a idea that might or even ones that do work, it would be a great reference to others, as all chicks are different.

She hops and she balances herself with the shank. Long term, I don't know if she will be able to hold her own or not. I wasn't as worried about infection, it seems to be sealing up ok. Maybe I should clean it again and put on the bandaid or boot.

It doesn't look like it hurts as much as it did before. My husband was thinking of something, like a toothpick, to make the legs more balance. Then cover with the band aid.
 
Wow, that's higher than I thought! I've seen onelegged chickens get around fine. So she'll be ok. But if you could make a fake leg that'd be even better. I'd use a popsicle stick and moleskin. And adjust it as she grows.
