Hello! I have a chick that I hatched 11 weeks ago. It seems healthy and is acting completely normal, but earlier I noticed for the first time that its two inner toes are bent sideways. At first I thought that she broke them, but then I thought that it was strange that it was only those two toes, corresponding on each foot, in the exact same place. She does not seem to be in any pain, so it doesn’t seem like they are broken. She walks and runs just like normal; you’d never know that anything was different if you didn’t see it! When she and her siblings first hatched, they had no toe issues, and even as they grew they were completely normal. I’m not too concerned about it because she doesn’t even seem to care, but I was just wondering why it would do that? Below are some pictures…
