Is this normal

The spur is on the back of the foot.

A spur:


The toe-ish thing that the "B" is pointing to is the spur. The "A"? I don't know what that's pointing too exactly XD.

Now the spur to give you an idea, it's used for attacking. And it's like a pointy toe, that's all.

Also, these little spur things, if annoying, can be removed painlessly by taking pliers, rotating the spur until the bone makes a pop, then removing it by pulling it off, with the exception that I lied, it probably hurts a lot.

No it is nothing like that, why don't all chickens have that though, I bet it would come in handy!
It is just, like I said, an extra toe!
I will send pictures when I get my camera that I ordered from amazon!

But hasn't the forth toe usually formed more by the next day after the chicks born?

 

[Brie6895]

I guess I should mention I'm talking about the toe that looks gray I'n color not the back 4th toe. The toe that is part of the main three they usually have.

Yeah, that chicks toe looks weird but it is probably just a weird chick.

Does he have any problem walking?

Annanimal - Sure it isn't a Silkie?

 

[annanimal]

Yeah, 100% sure, I don't have any silkies in my flock!

She can walk but she wobbles a bit more than all my others.

 

[annanimal]

It is strange but if she can get around fine than I wouldn't worry!
