If her leg is hurt, keeping her quiet will help prevent it becoming worse. If its dislocated it will not heal itself. You will probably need to help it get back where it needs to go. If it's broken keeping it quiet will let it heal. If it's not lined up properly you can splint it with two tongue depressors and some vet wrap.

You might want to carefully feel the legs and feet and compare it to the other leg and foot. Feel for any obvious differences and for extra warmth coming from any particular area. Let us know what you find

O

Ok so i checked her left leg looks more taller than right one it's seem like her bone is detached or something??

Are you able to take a picture? Is the possible dislocation where the leg and body meet (leg and thigh area) or mid leg (at the "knee area")?

You may need to create a splint or something to stabilize the leg. Is there a vet you can take the chick to see?

I'm so sorry for the delay in replying. I've had to work today.

Let me tag some others that can help figure this out.

Where are you located in the world?

So the chick was stepped on is that what you are saying - possibly more than just the leg if she's not able to stand up at all now.

Detached or something is a bit vague - if you think the tendon is slipped or that it's broken, you can try splinting the leg to see if that helps. Her not being able to stand at all now after a day is most concerning. https://theiwrc.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Duerr_Splinting_Manual_2010.pdf

Hi! How old is the chick? How long ago was it injured? Have you felt it's legs for obvious injuries?

Is this related to your other thread?
