Poultry Splint Instructions

  • Step 1: Wrap the chick's leg with a single layer of a gentle, self-adherent wrap , such as Sensi Wrap. Make sure that the back toe(s) are sticking out of the wrap (not caught up inside it).

  • Step 2: Apply and position the splint such that the back toe is sticking out of the opening in the back of the splint. Refer to photos above for guidance.

  • Step 3: After positioning the splint correctly, use more self-adhering adhesive wrap to secure everything in place. Bandages should be removed and replaced daily to allow adjustments for growth.

Tips during use:
Chicks may not be able to walk while being splinted and may need to be hand-fed and supported until they are healed. We recommend using a Peep Pouch to help cuddle your chick safely during this time.

Made in the USA. The splint is reusable and dishwasher safe! The add-on self-adherent wrap is made of non-woven material which is breathable, lightweight and soft, causing less irritation to the skin. This bandage tape contains latex.
