Aloha All,
Just put a squeaker in the kit box this morning and notice that he had webbing between two of his toes on one of his feet. Is this something that I should be worried about? Does anyone else have this showing up in their birds?

Naw Dexter,
It happens now and again in some families. If the bird is able to get around as normal, why worry?...For later reference, if this pops up again, you can take a sterile knife and cut the webbing between the toes when they are still in the nest.

I have a particular cock that most of his offspring produce the same web feet as him.
I have ask some of my friends that have been doing this and they tell me that is nothing.
I call him duck feet, LOL

Thanks guys,
So I can cut the webbing if its creating a problem with the feet or I can just leave it alone without any problems. This is just some type of mutation and not that a DUCK was crossed into the birds?;)

Dexter, I have never had that happened with my birds! I think if it did I would fly them only! I am not to comfortable with the weird stuff! (just me)
Rolando, nice pic! thanks for sharing!
