Here is a trick that sometimes works for chicks with splayed legs.

If you need to splint a chicks legs because it has splayed legs ( not broken legs) all you need are 2 small bandaids. fold the cottony part of one bandaid around the shank

of one leg with the sticky parts meeting in between the legs.

Carefully position the legs so that they look normal.

Then fold the cotton part of the other bandage around the shank of the other leg and stick the stick sides to the part of the other bandage.

Your chick should still be able to stand up.

You can remove the bandaids after 3 days to see what progress has been made.

Reapply the bandages if it seems the legs are splaying again.

How did the pioneers splint up a broken leg?

Well, from my knowledge, they had a tool called a Leg Splint. It was a wooden thing that would attach to your leg. If you were in need of a leg splint, some would just chop off a tree branch and use that. Many infections and such things as the Leg Splint were what caused disease and other infections. I'm glad we have good medical services and ways to help our legs and NOT use Leg Splints.
