Did Phorosrhacids have a backward pointing hallux?

I'm drawing a picture of Kelenken right now, and I was wondering if Kelenken and other Phorosrhacids had a backward-pointing hallux like eagles and seriemas, or no hallux at all like a cassawary or emu. Does anyone know what way the hallux of the terror birds went.

I don't know for sure but I would go by whatever the Seriema has since that is its closest relative that we can observe alive.
