Missing middle toe claw

[34Fam]

Hello Friends, I have some 2 week old babies that are all doing very well....(one is helping me type this message right now!) Question one of my Buff Orpingtons is missing and was apparently born with out both of her middle toe nails. Her feet are completely healthy looking other than this. She is active and weighs the same as the others. Has any one experienced this before? Just a random birth defect? Will this have any impact in her abilities as she grows? Thanks for your thoughts on this. -Lisa

Do you have a picture? Is she limping? I have never experienced this but am quite curious about this.

She will be fine! It's a genetic flaw, so she shouldn't be bred on, but will have no impact on her life.
