Has anyone had this happen before or know what this might be? One of my Ayam Cemani chicks was born like this yesterday morning. She seemed perfectly fine after hatching alongside her two siblings. They spent the day exhausted from there big trip like normal and I’ve found Ayam’s tend to not just get up and start running I don’t know if it’s because there legs and feet are just so much bigger then a regular chicks or if they are just slower to get started. But anyway, this morning the two others were running around eating and drinking fine, she acts perfectly fine and will try to get over to the food and water and keep up with her siblings but I have no idea what is going on with her. I’m pretty sure it’s a skeletal deformity because it’s almost like her tibias are attached backwards. Any and all help on what this is and what to do would be so greatly appreciated. I purchased these eggs from a reputable individual who is NPIP certified and they told me they were pure Ayam Cemani.
