Our 5 toed bantam hen

[supercoops]

Blue Bell, our bantam hen, has 5 toes on the left foot.

How uncommon is this, and could it be genetic?

She is a Silkie or Silkie cross, they are meant to have 5 toes per foot. It is a genetic thing but that's what they are sposed to have

OK thanks Stiggy. She has 5 toes on one foot and four toes on the other.

She's just a special silkie!
