My best girl, black Cochin is limping this morning. I don't see any obvious sign on injury, it seems like when I touch the part of the leg just about the foot she gets uncomfortable. I'm new to the game, any of you have any tips for me to look for or help her out?
 
What does the bottom of her feet look like?

If she indicates pain when you feel of her foot, she may have sprain it.
If she's not limiting her activity, you may want to cage her within the run/coop for at least a period of time during the day to force her to rest the leg. Some folks cage them all day/all night, if you think she may benefit from that you can do so. I've found that they get really bored being caged all the time.
