Bad Cockerel

That kind of thing is considered character around here.
Flaw is such a downer of a term, just sounds sad.

Well, it's not a flaw like poor Slowpoke or like the crossbeaked Olive Egger, but it does show that he's not a true Australorp.

Omg, wow Slowpoke was something else.
I have one with a little gnarly foot but not nearly that severe, short little legs too.
This is a hen though, gets around decent and lays grows crazy toenails.

Yeah, there's a lot more wrong with Slowpoke than a curled foot and splayed legs. He doesn't seem to be in pain though so I'm letting him wait until I'm culling a batch.
