I know when my ducks have injured legs that’s the first thing I do. I’m not sure if the seat would help her stand again but it would relieve pressure of her sitting on her legs constantly.
Have you tried soaking her legs in warm epsom salt water? Somewhere in this thread someone posted a pdf about making a seat for chickens that cant stand. I’ll see if I can find it.

Can someone give me some advice for my rooster? He’s having trouble walking on his feet, he flaps his wings to keep his balance. The underside of his feet look clean and normal.
Thanks for answering! I have checked her leg, it's not mites, there is no abrasion and I can feel no break. I am wondering if the Tylan is trying to work because I went out the other day to see how she was and when I tried to pick her up she tried to run from me. She is walking some, but only...
