I figured out what the problem was. I had compiled my dhcp server with USE_SOCKETS and am NOT running in a jail.
After a lot of searching the bug reports I came across an old bug that said that USE_SOCKETS was added for jailed dhcp servers, because they do not have access to bpf. It also said that compiling USE_SOCKETS into a non jailed dhcp server will have unpredictable results.
I found out that the server will behave badly like it is being sent through nat out our the wrong port.
