Kit born with gimpy leg

I don't think this is a problem, and almost feel like it doesn't even merit a new topic, but I wanted to double check and I guess ask if this is semi-common. We had a kit born with a deformed leg that turns inwards. He/she is also the runt. It is jointed, and it doesn't appear to cause any pain. We've flexed the joints and squeezed it gently and the kit could care less. I imagine it will have a problem walking when it is a bit older but since they aren't for pets or show it doesn't seem like it would matter. Apart from that it seems to be developing normally. Is this a common thing?

I've never had that happen. Never seen it either.

I would chalk it up to genetic deformity, see if I could figure out from which parent it came and then eliminate said parent from my breeding program (but that's just because I disliked genetic issues, wonder what else they might be hiding, and ergo don't want it in my herd).
