EMERGANCY young hen injured leg in pain

[betafkeet]

That leg looks really floppy to me. Is it possible that she might have strained or dislocated it?

Most likely that is the scenario, any treatments

There are definitely treatments to try. I've never dealt with this myself, so I'm not exactly sure how to treat, and I'm having no luck finding the links I thought I had. I'm pretty sure that splinting is important for recovery in either case but I'm not sure how that would change with a sprain vs a dislocation vs a break or what additional treatments would be.

I'll have to let others with more experience add on here.

Short update, she sadly died yesterday night infront of my eyes
