That's great! How hard was it to splint her leg? Could you take it off and then monitor her using it? Re-splint if she's limping.

It wasn’t too difficult at all surprisingly, her hip was not dislocated the break was at her elbow part. Which made it easier. I did take splint off yesterday evening just for a few mins an she was still limping around, but still putting pressure on it at the same time an trying to scratch with it. I did re-wrap her leg again an then she started to leave her leg to the side an not putting pressure on it as much with the splint on again. An she is trying her best to try to peck the splint off. lol

Silly chick I would keep it on for another week then. They heal so fast!

Will do then! yes I noticed! I was very surprised to see her already trying to walk on it already.
