The feet do have a left and a right.

Remember that the hind toe goes to the inside of the bird.

If you want to bend the feet, GO SLOW!

Use a hair dryer to heat them and slowly bend them into position.

You can also use a file and notch them from the under side of the knuckles to bend them around.

Be careful because the house wren toes are very small and can break easily. Reinforce the bent feet with a little super glue or apoxie sculpt. Clean the feet with vinegar or denatured alcohol before painting them.
