4 legged chick Clover

People like to keep their extracted teeth. But sometimes doctors like to keep the weird things for training purposes, so I wouldn't be too surprised if they want to keep it for the school or something.

It would make sense.

I am worried about the amputation. I know that it is necessary, operations are always so scary!!!!! Hoping for her survival!

I'm sure she'll be fine. They can take off regular limbs with no problem so this should be the same or even easier. No worries, I would think.

Wow... how is she doing??? So she has two dragging extra feet, kinda in the middle but further back of her two actual working legs? Then the left leg looked like it was struggling and behind in a pic...? awww poor Baby. It looked like the left leg was spraddle and that poor right leg was dragging all these extra things- along with a weak left leg... how is she? Any picture updates ? I really want a closer look lol

Mmmm… how do i say this. I ordered 6 chicks from Cackle Hatchery, i was given 8! and one of them has 4 legs. I honestly don’t expect survival but it doesn’t seem to be in pain?? I’m not sure how I would tell… But I just don’t know what to do.

Wow, haven't seen one of these before, but it should be just fine, and have great balance! With her vent to the side though, she might have other internal deformities and never lay eggs. Sure hope it is not a cockerel, poor hens! This is very rare, but has happened before.

This is interesting to read about. We ordered chicks in 2012 from the same place as you just did.

I ordered my last batch of chicks from Cackle as well and was completely satisfied with them. My year-old Black Australorps are laying big, beautiful eggs like gangbusters!
