I really can't see the picture that good. Just curious was truck in the same enclosure with the one that just passed?

Hard to tell for sure, but it seems to me the "right front leg" is in total shadow and not visible in the picture at all.

I'm guessing he may have broken it off at the foot. Watch it and make sure he doesn't favor it and that it doesn't swell, have redness or smell bad. I had a RF with really long nails and one was just dangling when I get her. It fell off over a year ago and it's just barely coming back now.
