PLS HELP How to fix a hurt leg

Have you checked the bottom of her foot pad for a bumblefoot scab? Pictures may help. Do you normally keep your chickens outside? I would keep her in a wire dog crate with food, water, and bedding, but keep her near the other chickens so she doesn’t lose contact with them. If she has sprained her leg, it may take days to weeks to heal. Does her leg seem weak or paralyzed?

It’s not paralyzed but it does twist to the side a bit other than that she won’t put weight on it and it’s a bit weak

She only put it to the side a little and once I’m not outside right now but I only noticed it once other than that she either kangaroo hops or limps when she walks
 
Well, that will take some time to heal. If you can cage her, but keep her with her flock, she may heal, but still be a part of the flock. That way you won’t have to go through the ordeal of having to reintroduce her. If you can get some human B or super B complex tablets from Walgreens, Walmart or similar vitamin store, you could crush a 1/2 tablet daily over her food. That sometimes helps with leg issues. Here is one for $5 BOGO sale:

one of my new chickens is really sweet but my other ones are bulling her and I couldn’t find her and then I found her in the holding pen snuggling the polish
 
Thank you for the help I was sitting in the room with her and she was ok and about an hour later I checked on her and she was stiff and lifeless its a big stress relief but sad she is the bird in my profile picture she went in her sleep I was in the room the whole time
