The pictures above are for the same bird (pied peachick). She is unwilling to put weight on the right let and holds it out. When I have her on her back, and line up both hips the right foot is angled out. It causes her pain when I have attempted to put the hips, hocks and lower legs in alignment with each other. Her leg issue came on rather suddenly and I can't pinpoint a situation that caused the injury.

These two images are for my second peachick. He/she has had the turned out leg and hip for 4 weeks now. I have tried different methods for keeping the hips, hocks and lower legs lined up but with no positive results. He/she does not appear to be in pain and does use the right leg.
Is there some way that I can determine if it is a slipped tendon or something more serious. Any recommendations on correcting these leg issues?
Thank you for any advice you can give.
