Our six month old rooster has what appears to be a congenital leg problem. He always had weak legs and sat a lot, even as a chick. Now that he’s heavier it looks like his legs pop out of joint at the hip when he walks. His legs were never really splayed but they do seem to be set far apart. Has anyone seen this before?
 
If you can get some pictures of how he stands from the front and back, and maybe a video of him walking, it would help to get some ideas. What breed is he?

He’s a golden laced Wyandotte. Here are a couple photos... I took some video but can’t figure out how to upload it.
