    Indian Runner Duckling turned in leg

    Hi, I'm a first time duck owner and just received three Indian Runners last week.

    Chicken with crooked leg

    I just noticed that one of my young chickens has some sort of leg injury or deformity. I have no idea how it happened or how long it's been like that. It doesn't seem to cause her pain, and it seems like she's figured out how to walk on it. What's wrong with her leg, and what can I do to help her?

    Background: We had a broody hen and gave her some fertilized eggs to lay on. We are first timers so made the mistake of leaving her and her eggs in the coop with the other hens. 3 got knocked out and stepped on at different stages by the other chicks and after 1 hatched she gave up on the other...
