Im posting of behalf of a friend here

My friend bought a surinam horned frog at the essex show and when she got home she noticed hes legs were sprawling out (shes panicking like crazy and stressing out about it)

She says hes legs are actually ok and sitting the way they should but hes feet are flaring upwards and outwards.

What could this be a cause of?
