Kids playing with one of my hens and now its having trouble walking

[kidzmom5]

So apparently my toddler was playing with one of my hens today and somehow injured its leg and now she can walk on it but its limping and then she just lays down and eats like that I was wondering how you could tell if its broken or sprained possibly and I need advice on what should I do in the mean time. Please let me know Thanks.

The legs are the weakest part of the chickens anatomy...
You need to separate and confine to a limited area that you are sure nothing will startle here (thereby causing more injury) and give it time to heal... dont let her roost ans hopping on and off the roost will exascerbate matters.
