PLEASE READ THIS! Make very sure you watch the bird after reintroducing to the flock. My birds (Cornish X) immediately attacked the chick with the brace. They thought it was food and all began pecking the chick. The bird is fine, but has to be separated until this heals.
Hello Doctor Lindsay. I have a 3 week old serama chick that has a leg problem. His right leg is hyper extending, I don't know what happened, but maybe it was stuck on something. Now, I have no idea on what is the treatment for its leg. It's so sad and hard to watch him tryna walk or run. Please. I need help. Thank you so much.
I have a hen that is about 5 months old .. she had splay leg as a chick I think .. she would not use her one leg so we separated her and gave her therapy lol and time to get moving on it.. she did and we put her back with the other hens.. that was like 2-3 months ago she was fine now she is hopping around on one leg and the other leg looks so skinny and her body is droopy on that side.. no idea how to fix it ..
Trying this with baby quail. The point is to just keep the legs under the baby in the forward facing position yes? Ours lays completely flat with the legs out on both sides like the splits. Would you suggest using a shot glass to keep it in place for awhile?
Hello, I am needing help on how to help my turkey. He is about 3 weeks and has a leg deformity… I tried taking him to a livestock vet but they could not help. It seems to be in his hip. His leg goes completely crooked I’m not sure what I can do because we have tried to splint it but it is not helping. Do you have any suggestions? I was thinking a cast that connects all the way up to his hip but we can’t get it snug around his body I was also thinking maybe a sling to set him in. I am a big animal lover and it breaks my heart I can’t help.
Thank you Dr. Lindsay. We just used this to help a baby chicken. I guessed on the length of the straw... do you change the length of the straw based on anything or is it always about a 1/2 inch long? or 3/4 inch long? I was guessing and used something in the middle since I wasn't sure...
Hey i have a 6 week chick that we put the tape around but when she walks she drags it, it does seem like she knows how to sprawl the feet. What do i do I tried a hair tye and a straw piece to make two holes. She just doesnt know how to stand up and drags her feet. Please help
How late is it to "fix" splay legs? My chick is about 1 month old now n b/c she was is a plastic bin, she often slipped n I guess to vomoensate for slipping she got sokayed legs. I should've noticed earlier but thought she was crawling (?) She was NOT like this when small n young in a more non-slippery box.
can this happen to a chick that is a few weeks old from slipping on something? 1 of my 9 stopped walking after we tried them in their coop(just to see) 8 did ok but maybe this guy got hurt...seems to be acting like a sply...was fine for a week before.
Get well soon! I have rescued two kittens momma cat killed by a human monster 😭 both kittens have wounds on neck and have ringworm all over his body could wounds be of fungus infection? Kittens never attacked by anyone.
my chick was very healthy and good when it came out from egg.now 4 days for my chick.but today suddenly it unable to set foot and legs are shaking .it has drowsiness as well
@@lovelives9864 if you were sick would you ask someone online? NO you'd go to a doctor. Don't be cheap (no pun intended) get the bird the help it needs.
I tried this in my baby chickens and the foot is more deformed and little it was either to loose to tight , I ended up hurting my chickens 😩🥺 I’m so sad about this ! I have tried almost everything! Still trying !!! I don’t want it to die !!! It’s my first chicken !! My neighbor did not mention tia deformity is this animal cruelty?? I think she figured it was going to die 😞😩 in so mad!!
I did this and my chick still wont stand straight or walk right though he/she tries keeps falling over. Tried the feet thing, wont stay in a cup -_- dont know what to do :/
@@gizanime782 oh that's so sad, lovely that she was able to have the bedroom to explore whilst she could. We have a chick in a similar state, I'm not very hopeful 😪
Why don't you show it on a bird that has the condition & use the correct size. I mean if you don't have a bird with splay or straddle leg then don't make a video! We want to see the transformation not what you think it might do. It's not really entertaining to watch animals being needlessly tormented.

Thank you! I just brought a Guinea home with this issue! So happy I can help this baby
My baby pheasants just hatched yesterday, 2 of them have splay legs, I will try this method, thank you.

Thank you😍💗🙏🏼 I'll do this with my Turkey chick today!!!💗🙏🏼

I understand no one is perfect, but with some of these methods you just showed, they will not work in the way you are doing them

Yes the wounds could be! Or even scabies or mites ... go to the vet and they can give you medications to help!
There's no way this is a veterinarian...

Thank you so much! I’m doing good ! Just taking it day by day! I hope you enjoyed the video :)
I DO NOT AGREE WITH THE STRAW. SOMETIMES IT CUTS INTO THE CHICKS LEGS.

RIDICULOUS!
Just use one band-aid cut in a small strip to
attach to each leg.
AND AT TIMES THE BAND AIDS COME OFF.
Chickens that don’t walk you get rid of
That’s farm living .

Why did you say it is BLACK????
because she knows her colors?!
