Success! My sweet highlighter colored chick had “Splay Leg” and we fixed it with this little brace!

I noticed that she wasn’t standing up. She kind of shuffled around on her elbows (knees?) and belly. She would eat and drink if I brought her over but not on her own. So, I googled it.
Her legs were slipping out from under her and it made her hurt. A brace to hold her legs together and two days of chicken physical therapy were recommended. I put her in a shoebox, fashioned a brace from ribbon and a straw, and hovered for two days. (Thank goodness my job is chicken friendly!) She is now free of the brace and running, flapping and jumping with her sisters! Yeah! Thank you Dr. Google!
