Hi I am new and have a Q

[SwedishShick]

Hi all..I have been lovin on Chickens since the mid 80's. I am starting my 3rd Flock in 20 years at my current home. I hatched my babies this time around. My very first time hatching. They were two weeks old on Monday. And the little chick that I am showing you did not have this issue yesterday and most definitely not on hatch day. I am almost certain it could not have hurt itself. It seems to be doing quite well with this handicap. Is this a genetic thing possibly? And what can I do to help her. I am just flabbergasted as to what happened to her. Thank you so much for any thoughts.

Bent toes is said to be genetic or from improper incubation temperatures. I think it's genetic personally.
