My 4 year old buff Orpington has had a limp for several days. She’s favoring her right leg. Once she’s up and moving it’s not as noticeable but she’s laying around a lot more and getting up looks painful and awkward. Could it be mites? A sprain? Please advise! Her feathers are wet from an epsom soak.

What does the bottom of her foot look like?
Can you spread her toes open and look in the crease to see if there's any scab/debris or injury?

I don't see anything alarming about the scales of her legs.
