My hen had a showgirl chick hatch today with only one leg. The other did not develop at all. I don't know what to do for it. Will it be ok to live with just one leg? Or should I get the baby euthanized so it don't suffer? I never hatched babies before but the other 7 are perfectly fine. Please help. I'd appriciate it. Thanks
 
Oh my..I have heard of one legged chickens before but they usualy had a stump of some sort, I guess if it was me I would see how the chick grows and could get around and if the others picked on it. I do cull chicks that have deformed twisted legs because they just never seems to able to get around well etc.
