Wow! Genetic throwback! How cool is that!

You've got a baby velociraptor there!

I agree. I like the mutation. Very cool!

im not seeing what you guys are seeing? it just looks like a frizzle to me?

Someone posted a youtube video of another chick with claws on its wings.

Though they look a bit smaller than yours.

This may or may not be heritable. Sometimes you just get a random developmental blip. But I'd like to see a wing clawed chicken line.

I have hatched lots of frizzle chicks but none like this one. i will keep it and post pics as it gets bigger.

Can someone circle the claws? I think I see it then it goes away.

It's at the "elbow" in the wing.

It looks like random feathers on the wing (right) in the top pic but in the bottom you can see the claw better.

That's pretty cool.

Imp-pity any predators.

Is the chick partially silkie? I have seen that on many of my silkies. I always thought it was because silkies are the most closely related birds to the dinosaurs (did anyone else see that episode of Nova where scientists are trying to make dinosaurs using silkie genes?)
Yours is MUCH bigger than the ones I have seen though!
Here is a tiny but very sharp one I just snapped a pic of.
