I'm a new chicken mommy and one of my 16 week old RIR seems to have maybe gotten a little cut on her right foot. She has started limping and it's awful to watch her try to not even use her leg or put weight on it at all. When I removed her to a seperate pen she just cries for my cinnamon queen ( they are pals) however my deck in was picking on her a bit earlier. My RIR is the biggest by far. I placed her in the coop in the nesting area to sleep and she seemed much calmer. What do I do? She's my favorite and I love her:(

Clean and disinfect the wound. Keep her separate and in quiet, clean surroundings. Put the pal with her. Watch the foot so it does not become infected. In a few days she should be fine.
 
She is dying. It's awful... Both of her legs seem to be paralyzed. In her attempt to move she has clawed up her wing. :(
