My Ameraucana with the broken toes is doing just fine now.....and has started crowing. He can sit on any perch with the best if them!

Hey guys I have a guinea hen with a fractured toe I think. I thought it was just sprained but it's been about a week and she's still not better. I've kept her in a little cage in the garage but I think I should splint it. Any more ideas?
Thanks!
How did it turn out? I have a hen that recently broke her toe. I'm worried about her. She is able to roost, so I have hope.
I'm so sorry for the late reply. She recovered completely even though the first night we saw her limping we left her in the coop because we were busy. She was roosting. The next day she awas worse so we took her into the garage (any short place where she can't roost is fine) and we let her out during the day. Eventually we bandaged up her foot with band aids and cotton wool and we gave her a bit of homeopathy remedy. The main thing you want is to keep her from roosting especially up high and definitely not going up trees. Broken toes aren't really a big deal as they can get along fine with a toe that healed wrong. Hope this helps!
Thanks for the reply Mine is also doing better, looks awful though. Crooked.
