Wheaten Crele Orpington Project, Reboot

He's unable to breed successfully due to a broken pelvis that didn't heal properly. He's lopsided.View attachment 2751303View attachment 2751304

Interesting, I would’ve assumed that was genetic.

Interesting, I would’ve assumed that was genetic.

He was acting off when he was younger, I knew he was acting like he was in a bit of pain, but wasn't quite sure why, until around 5½ months when I noticed a pointy area where his pelvis is.

Here he is at 12 weeks.

He's no longer in pain, & acts normal.

I will know if it's genetic if I breed him, but I'm pretty sure it's not a genetic deformity.
