I have a chicken that I noticed limping yesterday.. I think it may be a sprained leg or foot... I was just wondering if I put her in a little cage inside the coop to keep her from moving around alot if I would still have to reintroduce her to the flock..

Greetings from Kansas, Andrew09, and

! Pleased to have you here but sorry to hear about your gimpy chicken. I think restricting its movement is a good idea. Have you checked for bumblefoot (red and swollen footpad due to a staph infection in the foot)? You might post in this link for more precise advice. Good luck to you and your bird!!
