How old are these injuries? If they are healed over, I really have no idea what you can do. Many people make house pets out of injured and are handicap. You might post a pic of this bird in the emergency section here on BYC and maybe someone has experience with chickens with this sort of issue....

Good luck with your bird. I hope she can manage in this condition.

There have been other one legged chickens on BYC threads, usually from a predator attack and they have been able to get around very well. It is better to have them as a pet tho, so others in the flock don't attack or kill them.
