My hen was trying to fly and got stuck in a chain link fence. Now her foot is swollen and she is not using it. what should I do? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Do you know if it is broken

 

[farmagryl]

Don't know... she is eating just not walking (limping)

Could you post a pic she might have just pull a muscle or twisted her ankle

Do you have any baby aspirin for the pain just give her half of it

 

[farmagryl]

Yes I do but how on earth do I give that to her? Lol should I lock her up at night so she don't jump down?

Can you just open her beak like if you were to have to force feed her and I would put her in a box or something so she is not jumping around and not hurting it more

Thanks so much I'll try to give her aspirin and will put her in the box.

Make sure when you give it to her there isn't like a weird looking thing in her mouth opening and closing wait till it closes and hurry up and drop it in
