Pictures? It is hard to tell what is going on without pictures.

How do I post a picture. I tried when I first made the post and it didn't work.

Could you get a picture of it "standing" so we can see what you're meaning? Can you manually extend that leg? Is it the same size as the other?

 

[1sttimerchick]

its the same size as the other. and I have tried extending it and it starts to chirp and squirm like it hurts so I stop.

Sorry I have no idea but hang in there someone will peep in with more help. It's hard being a "mama" when they're "hurting" Hopefully it's not serious & straightens out.
