4 legged chick Clover

[Alyssa-Bee]

I did like the name suggestion from yesterday, "Lucky". She really is very lucky in many ways. Lucky she got overlooked at hatchery, & even more lucky she found u. "Lucky Clover" works, dont u think?!

Maybe as a nick name?

I said that cause Clover is her name, she is a lucky little chick, & "lucky clover" is a common good luck term.

Yeah! That would be a fun name! But like you said, her name is already Clover.

Yes her name is Clover and i Love that name. Lucky Clover is just a play on words thing.

Can a chicken have 4 legs?

The four-legged feathered friend, however, while a rarity is not unique. Four-legged chickens have previously been reported in China, as well as in India, the U.S. and Thailand but, more often than not, the additional limbs are nonfunctional.
Not uncommon, seems like it's happened to everybody once or twice.

well, the vet,(who is an avian and poultry vet) had never seen it before in her 30 years. i think most are culled before the growth opportunity...

OH MY GOSH...lucky four leaf clover...lucky four leg chicken, and it's almost St Patty's too! I just figured that out lol

Good to hear that Clover has a good prognosis.

Did the vet say that the extra legs absolutely needed to be removed? Could she have just as happy and healthy a life with the extra set of legs? Did the vet confirm the sex?
