Is this an odd wing position?

This 15 week old pullet (?) or cockerel (?) seems to keep their wings in an odd position. This chicken has weak legs and is unsteady. Is this wing placement unusual? They rest on the chick’s back and aren’t tucked in like all the other chicks. They use the wings for balance when unsteady on their feet. Any thoughts on what this is? Thanks
