Broken Leg or Popped Tendon?

[FlipFlopFarmer6279]

I have a small French Black Copper Marans who I think has a broken leg. She doesn't put weight on it and she is always leaning against the wall or sitting down. She's small and I don't want her getting trampled by the other chicks. I heard there are things called popped tendons but I haven't researched them much. Does anyone know what it is and how to fix it? I already tried what you do for spraddle leg but it came right off. She's already a week and a half old and I don't want to be too late.

I don't see a slipped tendon. Could it have just sprain it's knee, or hock/ankle?

Have you felt the leg itself for a break, or swelling?

Also not quite sure which leg you're showing though. Is it the one on the other side, or the one in focus?

The one in focus.

The one in focus.

Okay, that's the one I was originally looking at.
