Hi sfef84 Sometimes when they are babies in the nest they can unfortunately suffer from broken limbs being crushed by other siblings or the parents.If this happened to nikki at this young age she will not know any different & she wont relize she has a deformatiy.Does she manage to perch ok ? i know some owners adapt perches to suit the needs of their greys with deformed legs etc..Have you had her checked over by the vet ? THey will be able to tell you a little more.Im sure as long as she is healthy in other ways,eating,playing, being vocal etc.. she will be fine, but i would just pay a visit to the vet for your own peace of mind.And yes i agree you love her more, she is a special little girl & has a loving mom to look after her
