I almost lost one of my babies after a recent storm. I'm not sure if she injured herself while in the coop by freaking out but she seemed to have a leg injury then when coming out that morning she fell and hurt her wing. She was in shock and didn't want to do a thing. It was a disaster. But with some research. She went from pale face to eating on her own but I just want her back to normal if possible smmm. I just need some advice. I'm sure I'm missing details but just ask please and thank you
 
How old is she? Do you have any pictures of her? Is there any swelling, redness, green brusing or cuts on her leg or wing? Usually rest is needed if there is a sprain injury, and a wire dog crate with food and water sat in the coop and run with the rest of the flock is the best way to achieve that. If she cannot stand or walk, a chicken sling can be made to get her up and in front of food and water. Those are used for times throughout the day with periods of rest out of the sling. Here is a link for those slings:

There is no external or anything that can be seen but she tries to hop away and wobbles a little with her wing but I have been trying give her water and food and she eats and drinks fine . I will most definitely start w the sling. But gimme a sec and I'll get pics rn.
