Hi all! Didn't know what category to post this in. We picked up some Asian black pullets today on a whim, since we are already equipped for chicks. Come to find out there is little to no info on them online! Anyways we got 4, 3 babies have an extra rudimentary metatarsus and one has normal 4 toed feet!! The one with normal feet is the only one with white on her. Any info on why they have different feet & should my Asian blacks have the 5th toe Gene? It's dark here now, will update with pics if needed.
 
Asian Blacks are some kind of hybrid, but I don't know much about them either. This is the first I've heard of them having a 5th toe, so I'm guessing that most do not--but apparently some (yours) do!
