Is it the webbing between the toes?
If yes, then it is a common thing to hear.
One of the very famous bloodlines in Turkey had this about 30 plus years ago.
Since then many fancers have been after that bloodline.
The gentleman who created the bloodline has passed a dozen years ago but extensions of his bloodline are kept as prized birds.
I have not seen anyone with those birds get close to the original birds' performance though.
Then again people tend to ran after legendary figures vs. trying to understand what is right infront of them.
It has something to do (in my opinon) with today's faciers asking so much from the birds but underestimating the importance of the breeder in the equation.
I would say the homer fanciers probably are the exception to this.

Did he say where he got them from?
