Does he move around fairly well? If it's only one leg than more than likely he took a spill at some point and if he moves fine, then it just healed that way but if he doesn't move well it could have been more recent and possibly still fractured. That or could have been a deformity due to lack of calcium earlier in his life. I've also read that sometimes an infection, worm or maybe even gout could be the cause. The best thing to do is to take him to a reputable exotics vet and they can make the call and give you something to take care of the problem whatever it may be. It seems like his legs are pretty straight though so I would rule out mbd.
