It's a rare feet!
via Boing BoingRyan Dickey, 10, found the four-legged wonder legging it around an incubator at his Te Uku home on Monday.
Mum, Marlene, breeds 14 types of chickens and said it was the first time she'd seen one hatch with four legs.
The little clucker is a Barnevelder chicken, a Dutch breed, and Mrs Dickey said other lesser legged chicks had accepted it without a problem.
"He looks really robust and strong, he's good, he's just cruising along." The chick uses its bottom two legs to walk on.
She had noticed nothing out of the ordinary with the rooster and hen leading up to the lay and neither appeared to be feeling particularly clucky yesterday, she said.
The family intend keeping the chicken as a pet and are considering naming it Jack-peg-a-leg.
