Sometimes you'll hatch a bird(s) with a leg sticking out sideways or noticeably curled toes. I'm sure there are legitimate names for these issues, but we're going to say gimpy legs and curly toes.

Usually it's just a bird or two, but poor genes and/or sketchy incubation can cause multiple to hatch this way. If it's one out of the 50+ you just hatched, just cull it. But, you can try to fix it if you can't live with doing what I said.

For the gimpy leg, tie them together like shackles. A bandaid works well, but it can be difficult to remove later. Some people use a hair tie with a piece of tape in the middle or simply use string.

For the curly toes, make a little sandle with a bandaid.

Give it a few days and some observation. There's a good chance you'll save the little shit. Just be gentle, it's likely the smallest, most fragile animal you've ever held in your hand.

I think it's more accurate to say drop dead summers and winters. We did have periods of excessive rain this fall. Just a few weeks ago too, in fact.

It has rained four out of seven days for weeks on end here, and it's torrential rain. Better than no rain, but I think I'm going to have to plant my garden in five gallon buckets with the bottom cut out because they're going to drown.
