I was bring my chicks inside and I noticed this one's foot. She doesn't limp. Should I be concerned?

It was their first time outside. The bin is only used to take them in and out. They have been in a brooder with pine shavings until today.
 
Bent toes and leg and foot deformities or weekness in young chicks are sometimes caused by vitamin deficiencies.
We're the toes like this before, or something new?
What are you feeding?
Have there been recent changes to what you are feeding.?
Going outside would not cause this
I just noticed it. I have all the chicks a look over bringing them inside. To be honest I haven't been good about checking their feet in the brooder. I check for pasty butt but haven't paid attention to their feet. I am new to this. They are on a medicated chick starter. I have 15 other chicks with her and she is the only one. They have been on the same feed the entire time. She is walking fine.
