Does my BD have metabolic bone disease?

I got this brand new baby BD and I noticed his toe is a little wonky. He is probably fine and I am overthinking this but better safe than sorry?

Does he get the proper supplements (calcium and calcium with D3)? Does he have a Reptisun or a very good UVB light? Make sure his foods are low in oxalates-if you are feeding him kale, switch to mustard or collard greens.
Is he lethargic or not eating?
Check for swelling in the jaw?
If there are no other symptoms or causes, it's probably just a funky-shaped toe, though you might want to check it for injury.
