Lame chick question?

7 years ago

I have a 6 week old chick which has been doing fine all along. Then one day, i found her laying in the brooder and was not able to move. To avoid her being trampled by other chicks, I took her out and have been raising her in the garage. I put her in a cardboard box with water and feed. She seems to have gotten better, but one of her leg is limp and she is not able to put any weigh on it. So, she uses her good leg to push herself around.

I dont think she can really recover. Would she has a reasonable good life? Can I put her back with the flock at some point?
