Does the sorrel's front left foreleg look crooked?
The chestnut is definetly splay footed, but that's the least of the problems on those two horses. They both look starved, sick, and on death's door.
Reply:it does look crooked, and the horse also looks poorly fed
Reply:Im not sure what its called when their feet are like that. I know pigeon toed is when their feet stick in, but im not completely sure what its called when there feet stick out.





Although that horse looks malnurished
Reply:well actually there are horses that naturally have the outward bend to their feet.


but them horses do look in very bad shape, i hope they are beeing tooken care of proberly...
Reply:A crooked leg is the least of his worries I would venture to say.





And my mules think they are abused *rolls eyes*





(going to print picture to show mules how blessed they truely are)
Reply:Sorry to be pedantic but 'front left foreleg' is tautological.


Also, sorry if I seem sceptical but exactly why have you have posted this photo twice - are you geniunely interested in the state of these horses' health and conformation or are you having a laugh?
Reply:ya and they look extremely malnurished and his/her front left foreleg also looks bloody. they are in serious need of ventranairy care!
Reply:Yes, that horse looks not only like he toes out badly but he is also in need of hoof care and some groceries.
Reply:yea
Reply:It could just be standing that way. I have seen horses with perfectly straight legs stand funny, but it bears watching when the animal moves. If it is kept this way then YES!
Reply:yes and it is very malnourished
