i have 1 chick who hatched yesterday who has messed up feet. They stick out wrong and look weird. His dad is also his grandpa and his mom his half sister. Could that have affected his development? Dad is a white Brahma and Mom is white Brahma/Black sex link cross.
The eggs were on a rotator...
I know it's a purely hormonal thing, but my roosters (bantam and a white brahma) are chasing our older hens into the nesting boxes onto the eggs. I have never heard of a rooster doing this, but if these certain hens will get out of the box they will raise heck and chase her until she gets back...
