Noticed something interesting today, not just extra toes, but only on one foot

I noticed tonight that one of my silkie chicks has 6 toes on each foot. The sixth toes are super small. Im loving it

Extra toes and nails in 5 toed breeds are not uncommon. No big deal for a bird in a backyard flock. It is a trait that is easily passed on though, so not one you'd want in a breeder.
