Hi, everyone!
Yesterday my granddaughter (she's so observant) noticed that our 12 week old Easter Egger roo's (pretty sure he's a rooster) toe is bent. And I don't mean bent downward, I mean when he stands, the center toe of his left foot points to the left, not straight ahead. I have no idea how it came to be this way--never noticed it before, and I've never seen him get injured, and he leads a pretty risk-free life. Is this something I should try to correct, or is 12 weeks too late? He has no problem walking or getting around--just looks odd when he's walking with that toe pointing to the left. Any thoughts?
P.S. I would take a picture, but he's already in bed. But I've attached a photo of some pencils to represent the angle of his toe situation. The pencils on the right are a normal chicken foot; the pencils on the left
represent our roo's foot. I can snap a picture tomorrow .
