Deformed feet
« on: June 04, 2008, 01:12 »
Our of the 4 of the chicks that have hatched 1 of them has crooked feet. I don't know why, he just came out like that. Is there anything I can do to correct this?..

I would have thought without expensive vet fees...no. But I am no expert.

Sticky plasters seem to be the thing for all sorts of foot and leg problems.
I demand the right to buy seed of varieties that are not "distinct, uniform and stable".

It's not an uncommon problem, especially in incy eggs  :(

Sometimes you can straighten them as woodburner suggests.  Sometimes they will be able to hobble about enough to do most chickeny things.  But sometimes ...  :cry:
