Raising Bantams again after a break of many years

[Trevord]

I bred bantams in the open many years ago when I had a large area of land. My space is now much reduced but decided to start again and incubate some bought eggs. Your guide to incubation was invaluable and I had a reasonably successful hatching.
One of the chicks has got splayed legs but is otherwise very healthy. How can the leg problem be resolved? The chick is three days old.

Hello again, and welcome. @DobieLover left you a link to an informative article. @Debbie292d has some experience with this also.
Please don't wait to correct this problem. The earlier you treat spraddle leg, the better. Also make sure the chick has access to food and water. It's condition will improve with proper care.

Hello again and welcome to BYC!

Definitely follow the link that @DobieLover has left to fixing your chicks legs. Don't wait too long or the legs can never be fixed.

Best wishes with your chick?
