Hatched a chick today that walks on it's elbows. It's not splayed. It's like it just can't straighten it's legs to stand. It's not clubbed. Toes are not curled. The feet are not turned out. The "elbow" joint seems a little larger than normal, swollen maybe? I play with it's legs and I can straighten them, but s/he doesn't like it... like maybe it hurts.
I have them on cloth, not newspaper or shavings. It's the only one like that and I didn't help it out.
Advice anyone?
