We already have him separated with the other injured chickens. I wish I could wrap it, but I can’t figure out where on the leg the injury is.

Chickens can survive broken limbs. I have a pullet that had broken her leg. Took a long time to heal but she's doing great now.If it’s broken, he won’t survive.If it’s sprained then keep him in your sight Andy in an inclosed space where he can’t go anywhere. Make sure to wrap it.
My lock is similar to this now.after the first time if found my coop opened or tampered with, this would have been my first solution.

it may be possible that a raccoon can also open certain locks and doors. this will stop them to.
I hope that doesn’t happen!!! If so, I’ll get more serious. I’m debating electric fencing.As others have suggested, lock your coops if at all possible. Of course, someone with wire cutters can always cut through the fencing and accomplish the same thing in letting your chickens loose.
