Chicken not using her foot help

[Eggcessive]

Could she have injured or broken her ankle? The foot looks a bit twisted. How long ago did this occur?

A little over a week ago. There is no swelling or heat anywhere and I dont feel anything broken, she doesn't even act like it hurts. It was straight before when we first took her inside to recover but now it looks like this

Do her toes on the left foot curl under? Was she vaccinated for Mareks disease? Can she get to her food and water okay? I would probably keep her in a pen or crate near food and water.

I agree...it helped mine a lot to be able to get to her food and water and not get picked on.

She's been in a crate inside for a little over a week with easy access to food and water. Her toes dont really curl, its like she can't control them so they are floppy and drag. I dont believe she was vaccinated but I got her from a farmer so im not sure

Injury can look like Mareks disease and vice versa.
