Acting strange

Your feed store will have what you need. Corid is a brand name in the States, Amprolium is generic name. Should have two dosages listed, one for standard, routine treatment, another for 'outbreak'; I'd give them the higher dosage just for certainty.
In no way will treatment hurt your birds or cause you to discard any eggs laid while being treated; it's not an antibiotic.
 
Have you had any freezing temperatures recently where frostbite might be a problem? What type of bedding are you using? Is it dry and cleaned often? You might try soaking her feet in some warm Epsom salts daily for 20 minutes to see if that helps. Only do that inside where it is warm,,p and then dry her well before putting her back outside.
It has been snowing lately here in colorado. I use softwood shavings that stay dry. I clean my coop about 3x a week.
How old is she? Does she lay eggs? Do you have a rooster with her who might have jumped on her and hurt her? Does she hold the injured leg up, or put weight on it? Was she vaccinated for Mareks disease? You may want to separate her inside the coop in a dog crate with food and water to let her rest the leg. Pictures of her standing possibly could help.
she is two years old, but I am not sure if she is laying right now. We do not have a rooster only hens. She limps and can't really walk. none of my flock has been vaccinated.

should I keep her inside or should she be outside?
