Please help, one of my hens has something wrong with my leg I do not know what it is, its really loose and she cant move it
 
Can you take a quick, short clear video of her and upload it to YouTube?
 
What exactly do you feed?
How long ago was the last time that you brought a new bird home?
Do you know what Marek's disease is?

Mixed corn, a chicken feed, she is about 4 months old, birds home is cleaned weekly and I do not know what Marek's disease is
 
Chicken feed in a crumbled or pelleted form is a complete balanced diet for a chicken.
If you are feeding mixed corn mixed in with chicken feed then the bird is probably not getting a balanced diet.
Not getting a balanced diet could cause nutritional deficiencies can cause leg issues.

Marek's disease is another thing that could cause a leg issue.

I would recommend stopping all treats and only feeding the complete balanced chicken feed.

I would also try and get some poultry vitamins into the bird today and see if daily vitamins help any.
