new chick with a lame leg !
« on: January 22, 2012, 20:53 »
I've Just hatched 10 chicks in the incubator but one has a lame leg and keeps falling on its back, dose anyone think it will heal or should I put it out of its misery.

thanks.

it sounds like spraddle leg/splay leg. How to treat can be found here:-
