yeah, I've seen alot of chicks with extra mutant legs over the years, this is the closest I've seen to something that looks functional... but i bet it just drags those legs behind it, and will die long before adulthood.
Nah just grew up on a family farm that has about a hundred free range chickens, parents didn't kill off the local born roosters or add in new blood very often.
Saw a mutant every few years, extra random legs was the most common thing, saw a 5 legged chick as a child, but it died within a day of hatching.. and as far as I could tell couldn't control the extra legs at all.
I also saw a huge number of chicks over the years so a truly tiny number were actually mutants in comparison.

Why does this look functionally better than a normal chick?
