My chicken is walking funny

I disagree. I think she looks like a she. However, I’m not all that experienced. I do notice her tail down in two of the photos (the two standing ones), like she might not feel well. Aside from the crossed feet and tail down, she looks great! Maybe she will just need a littke extra care. Love that her sister is sleeping next to her. I had a sick chicken whose flock mate would sleep down with her at night and even sometimes sit shoulder to shoulder with her when she rested during the day. The very night she died, her friend returned to roosting with the other girls. I am amazed these littke sweeties are capable of some complex emotions, like compassion, sympathy, and empathy. They really are special. Please do keep us posted.

Large, red comb at only two months old, w/ wide base... pics aren't good enough to see hackle/saddle development but that's a boy if I've ever seen one.
 
You all are so helpful... Do you have any idea what kind of chicken he is, I have 3 others just like him with some black feathers but are much bigger, I know I have 6 ISA Browns ..I believe 3 Barred Rock and 3 Cuckarons .. do not think I will buy chicks from Tractor Supply again only because they werent very insightful on the breeds.
 
This was a few weeks ago ... Love the yogurt mustaches

Looking at Him further today... it looks like one leg/foot may be bigger than the other. Besides walking awkward he seems very normal . He does lay to eat. And seems content to sit on my lap..
