web feet

[Sissy]

I have a 3month old cochin hen
I was taking care of her yesterday,
I just noticed 2 of her toes are webbed to gether/
she walks and runs and seems to be ok
is there something I should do.
I plan on using her for Egg production .

She will be just fine for egg laying. I wouldn't use her as a breeder however. There is nothing you should do beside love her even witha funn webbed toe.

I read your post as I am experiencing the same problem with a baby Cochin. I will use her for egg production as well, and she also seems to walking fine now (although only a week old). I'm replying to you since your post was awhile ago and i was wondering how your hen did with leaving here be and not cutting the toes-I would prefer to leave mine but don't want her to grow with a problem or have pain. Thanks in advance for any tips/experience you can pass to me!
