I have a blue orpington pullet approx. 26 weeks old. She injured her leg a few days ago. She has not been able to put weight on it but does use it for balance. Her toes were in normal position until yesterday. The pics show how she is now. Her leg is sensitive to touch at the joint where the thigh and leg are connected. I can't feel a break or anything unusual there. She held the leg and foot straight out in front of her until she started curling the toes under her foot. Now she holds it in the position in the pics. Should I make a shoe to keep her toes straight? Is there any medication I should give her?
Thanks for any advice you can give me.
