My little RIR has a broken wing. It's the first bone that's attached to the shoulder. It's not compound, there's no bruising. She's eating and drinking well. I looked here to see if there are tutorials to wrap her wing but couldn't find anything. Can someone please help me 😭. I can't lose another hen so soon.

@Wyorp Rock @azygous @Eggcessive please help me 😢
 
Pictures? I have never treated that, but it may depend on how young the bird is. I have read some things where they say to leave them alone, but there are a lot of links available for wrapping the wing next to the body in a natural position for older birds. I just found several videos. Here is a splinting manual for birds:
