Thank you fowlfeatherfriends for responding.
Today the silke actually tried to walk on her leg and took about 6 steps. I kept her in the coop to make sure she gets rest. This may heal on its own but if not I will
try what you suggested.
Thanks

Hello all:
Our little silke hen cannot walk at all and favors her little leg/foot. She holds her wing out to try to support herself and then she falls right smack on her beak. Her leg/foot feels very wobbily and moves around too easily. It appears to be broken to me. I read somewhere...
Hi all. we have an adult silkie hen who appears to have broken her foot or leg. She cannot walk on it. What do you suggest we could do to help her. We are assuming this is a fracture as she is alert, eating and drinking.
