Im so confussed, I Just reconized that my little chick (silver laced cochin) Has a backwards Toe! I mean the nail points upwards! anyone have experience with this happening, Possibly because its a shipped egg.
 
Well there both backwards, On each foot the same toes backwards. I read online that feathered feet chickens are more commenly for this is happen, unfortunality, I cant get a pic because its toes are sooo small and the only camera I have it my phone, which sucks but ill go online and see if I could fine a pic that looks Identical.
 
are you sure it isnt a spur?

I'm so sorry to hear about your chick.

I was searching "backwards toe" 'cause I noticed my bantam cochin frizzle and my faverolle/cochin bantam both have their outside toes just like that, with the tallon pointing up. I was wondering if it was a bantam cochin thing... since they're from totally different sources.
