Silkie Toe

[Sunny-Side Up]

I have a little Silkie, 9 weeks old today. I was just outside with my chickens when I noticed her fifth toe was odd. I know Silkies have five toes on each foot, but this one is crooked... I'll just let the pictures show it. She's walking and acting perfectly fine though. Anyone know what this is? Thanks so much!

Anyone?

It is a little hard to tell, but it could either be a deformity or the back toe got broken somehow.

My baby Silkie has the same thing. Her second toe is angled at 90 degrees! She walks fine and it doesn't appear to bother her at all though.

If the Bird is fine then nothing to worry about.
