Broken Leg...?

[chichick]

I think my chicken has a broken leg. All of the chickens were up against the fence like usual except 1 that was laying in the back of the coop. When I walked up to it, it just hung it's head and sat there. When I picked it up, I inspected it's wings and everything, but then I pulled her right I felt a pop and she jerked away. Does that mean a broken leg, and if so what do I do?

I am no expert, but I would think if it popped, it's dislocated...

Is she walking at all? My chicken hurt her leg and I am still asking a ton of questions, but I was told to remove her from the flock to let her heal. My girls leg is hot which might mean infection. I am going to see if I can find an antibiotic to give her.

I hope you get your questions answered and that your chicken heals OK.

After that she hasn't shown any sign of a hurt leg exept for when she tried to stand up and you could tell it was still bothering her, but we brought her inside and watering her with a bottle(she won't drink on her own).
