Broken/Sprained Leg

[desertchik]

I have a 3 month old chick that has an injured leg. Possibly broken, she won't stand on it, mostly lays down. I have her separated from the rest of the flock to rest because she does still have a lot of energy, hopped over before I noticed her injury to fight with the other chickens for the treats I was handing out (of course, that's when I noticed it). Can she be in the run with the other chickens just in a smaller crate so she won't roost or run too much while she's healing or should she be removed completely from the coop and run area. I just don't want her to get too lonely as she is still trying her best to mingle with the flock even while injured.

Try splitnting the leg, making the chick as comfortable as possible. Then place her in a small area. Add 2 of the friendliest chicks and make sure she has access to food and water.
