Leg problems are caused by rapid growth. High protein feed is the culprit. If you are gonna butcher them anyway, not a problem. To slow down their growth and raise some breeders, it would be advisable to feed regular chick starter and no more than a 14-15% protein feed so their bones can keep up with their bodies. Looks like that`s not an issue, but I`m glad we cleared that up........P
