Lori,
It's so rare for a chick to recover I had no advice. I can't tell you how many times I have done what you are doing plus tried even more things to get their leg right. Even my vet's advice only worked once out of all of the years I have had poultry. We need you to share your chair and everything else you did, along with a drawing or two so we can understand.

OMG IT'S SOME KIND OF MIRACLE. The little guy is using his leg, he escaped from the chair again, but when I got home, he was standing on his leg, he's limping but is finally using the leg. Wow, I was just about to give up since I didn't get a whole lot of advise.
I have been giving him polyvisol and I put a vitamin b complete tablet in his water.
I'm so relieved.. He keeps it towards the back of him using his toes only but when he lays down, he has it completely tucked under him in a position that it should be.... This is sooo weird but sooo great at that same time. He's only two days old so perhaps if he keeps this up he can fully recover...

OMG. Chirps boy is he loud. I think if I do this for some time until he heals perhaps he'll be OK.. Not really sure at this point.
