[Curled toe paralysis] occurs in chicks and poults up to three weeks of age on deficient starter diets. The toes are curled downward and inward and the weight is supported mainly on the hocks. Consequently the birds are reluctant to move and become recumbent; their growth is retarded and eventually they become emaciated and die. 3, record 1, English, - curled%20toe%20paralysis
