| I know she is keeping the bird, but don't know if his leg problems were corrected. From what she described his legs stick out in front, not to the side like a splayed leg. |

I have a Canary chick with a splayed leg.  Right now I have the chick in a very small cup to help hold it in correct postion. I am also hand feeding it. because the hen squishes it so tight under her the chick can not pull its leg into correct position./ I am a little computer illiterate so could someone please direct me to a place where I can see how to make a hooble? I saw the drawing and the foam hobble but was looking for something more like the drawing. question... If I wrap the chick's leg and body in white guaze wrap to hold the legs in [they will be immobile this way. I would also make sure the vent is not covered.] would that help? I do know the cup method I am using right now is not going to work in a few days as the chick grows.  Cathy |

| Well, what sort of diet are you desiring? Was it a pellet, seed, or other type base? I have a flock of parrotlets, and we don't really use any "pet" food. I feed a large variety of fresh produce, cooked grains/beans, sprouted beans, nuts and other supplements. I focus on human grade ingredients, local and organic when possible and a nice variety. | |
