Why does this look functionally better than a normal chick?

This is kinda how evolution works. Random mutations in genes. The good mutations carry on through breeding.

Bearing in mind that when you’re talking about evolution, “survives long enough to breed” is the only criterion for “good” that matters.

Not exactly for example if its a particularly strong bull it can breed for more seasons thus have more offspring and i don’t really know how birds breed but if this chick can grow in to a vicious rooster with extra grip for love making we might even see return of the dinosaurs without the park bullshit.
