I am unsure how to help, but I would recommend you tag @Eggcessive and @Wyorp Rock.

Unfortunately, there's nothing to be done about the toe. She'll heal.
Do your birds get any real food? That's a high fat, high carb diet.

The toes in the thread you linked are Crooked Toes, not broken. Crooked toes can be due to genetics, problems during incubation, etc.
Crooked toes cannot be fixed and it would be painful to try. I would leave the toes alone.

If you can post photos of Your hen, we'll take a look at them. Even if it's broken, splinting or correcting the toe can be painful and often it doesn't heal completely straight.
