Hey there, and welcome to BYC.

I also have a lame hen. In my bird's case, I think she strained or sprained her hock (her elbow?) getting her foot caught. It has never gone away. She seems to hang in there and is a tough little bird. I hope your hurt chicken gets better. I have tried warm epsom salt soaks on her leg and then some PRID drawing salve. She does not like being treated, but she also doesn't like being lame. Good luck!

Thank you for the helpful advice. We've been worried about our chicken, but like yours, Jan is a tough little bird. She puts up with our doctoring her pretty well.
