Back legs close together and front legs apart

What's that called? I know Jez stands with her back legs very close together, though they're not pidgeon toed or anything. Her front legs are normal though.

Is this something to worry about or at her age, is it just not worth it to worry? =P

she could just be base narrow at the back, i know alot of horses that stand very close together in the back end, but when you square them up, they stand normally.
