Hello everyone,
I have 11 five and half week old chicks a mix sort and noticed this morning that all 3 Buff Opringtons have one bent toe. It's the inner left toe on their right leg ( all 3 of them). They are not swollen move in the joint well just that they bend out and backwards instead of straight. What do you think it is? A genetic thing? A defiencey? None of the other chicks have this. (Australorps, Silver Laced Wyandottes and Americaunas). They don't seem to be bothering them but it's the same toe on all 3 Buffs. Very interesting.
Thank you for any suggestions and help.
