Has she been eating her crumbs???

Can't remember where it was now, but I saw one for splayed legs and they used the long thin plasters 2 of them wrapped round each leg and stuck to each other in the middle.  I'll try to find the picture as I'm not good at explaining things.

This is a better description than mine.......

Take a regular band-aid that has a middle pad measuring 3/4 inch long.  Cut the band-aid in half lengthwise.  You will only use 1 piece, so save the other piece for the next chick needing help.  Wrap each side of the sticky surface around 1 leg, leaving the 3/4 inch pad in the middle as the spacer between the 2 legs.  

Ah found it!

Thing is in another post R66 said she'd not been eating any grass, if she's not been eating any other food either she could just be really weak & need food asap

Brewers Yeast moistened and sprinkled on food enhances flavour and encourages the bird to eat also in book mentions concentrated horlicks

She might need antibiotics???
