jackowilkinson Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 We hatched a chick last Wednesday (plymouth rock) that now has a splayed leg. It looks like it is twisted round. The chick has been on brooder card so has good grip. It is healthy in all other ways. Help please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Example of what to do **here**. There are lots of articles on Splayed Legs if you Google......all saying pretty much the same thing. I hope it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I have hobbled chicks with splayed legs and it works well after just a couple of days. If the leg is turned around though or misaligned then it might be a bigger job, or need euthanasing I'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
