Baby chick with combined toes.

[rirbrahma]

My new baby chick has 2 toes that are combined by extra skin. It looks separate with skin attached through the middle.
SHould I cut it and bandage it up?

Sort of like a webbing, then? I wouldn't do anything unless the chick had trouble walking. If it did have trouble, then I would make sure I used a very sharp, sterile knife or even super sharp scissors and just snip it quickly.

Then it would need some bandaging. I really wouldn't do it if the chick wasn't having trouble though.....
