hi, i was given an emu chick a few weeks ago, and recently i noticed he is bow legged on his left side. the breeder said this occasionally happens, but could the type of food/ Protien % contribute to this to?

actually that's backwards, it's an over abundance of protein in the feed that causes twisted leggs in swans, turkeys, peafowl etc. Their muscle mass out grows the strenght of the bones to supore the weight resulting in twists,
Dont believe that to be the problem here though, CZ knows...
