2009 journal article
Effect of incubation temperatures and chick transportation conditions on bone development and leg health
JOURNAL OF APPLIED POULTRY RESEARCH, 18(4), 671–678.
author keywords: leg health; incubation; chick transportation; bone; broiler chicken
TL;DR:
It is concluded that low early incubationTemperature, high late incubation temperature, and transportation stress can increase the incidence of leg problems in commercial broilers.

2009 journal article
Incubation conditions affect leg health in large, high-yield broilers
The Journal of Applied Poultry Research, 18(3), 640–646.
author keywords: incubation; broiler chicken; leg health; gait score; welfare
TL;DR:
It is demonstrated that proper incubation conditions improve broiler performance, especially in females (1.2%); may reduce leg health problems such as crooked toes; and may even improve locomotion.
