Hi, I have a chicken that was recently attacked by a coyote a few weeks ago. Shortly after the attack I noticed them limping and a minor lump forming on their leg. I didn’t think much of it until recently the lump started to get very large and she could barely stand on her foot. I’ve given her antibiotics and seperated her from the other chickens but don’t want to take her to the vet if this is a simple fix. I’ve believed it it be just possible her bone broke and it’s healing wrongly, does anyone have any idea what this could be?
 
Hello, and welcome to the BYC community! :frow

Could you post some pictures of her injuries and the "bump" from several angles?
Does the bump smell strange, is it warmer to the touch than the same area on her healthy side?
