Should I wrap it or leave it?!

I find it interesting that she is clearly limping, but scratches with both feet no problem. Almost like weight bearing hurts? Have you taken a good look at her feet, including the bottoms? If you gently palpate her foot and leg, can you tell there it’s tender?

I did look at the bottoms, no bumblefoot or wounds eta. I agree, it’s so strange. I haven’t tried to palpate her leg so I will try that now. I have been checking on her every 30 minutes for 3 days so she’s super annoyed with me

I found that interesting to while watching the video. I didn't see any swelling on her leg, discoloration, or signs of injury. I think I do see were her wing looks swollen though. Is that raised area of feathers on her wing what you're thinking is swelling OP? If we're looking at the same location, it does look swollen to me as well.

I think we are talking about the same location, I can’t find anything wrong with her leg which makes me worry about Marek’s but i think she would have gotten worse and she’s still the same.

Another update: She is more active today and has more of an appetite but still has a limp with her wing out and her feathers puffed up. She did lay an egg though so I think she is slowly improving!

so she’s not limping anymore which is good and her wing is still a little bit out but not a lot, but now I’m starting to think if she’s Broody on top of that because all day I find her in the nesting box and every time I go near her she puffs up her feathers which is very unlike her unless she’s broody because she’s usually really friendly, she’s also lost a lot of weight because she’s not coming out to eat am I allowed to feed her scrambled eggs?

You can give her a small amount of scrambled eggs as a treat.
If she is indeed going broody and you don't want her to sit on and hatch eggs, it's best to break her broodiness.
As you mention, they can lose condition/weight when sitting.
Here's some tips on breaking her

I just tried to feed her the scrambled eggs and she wouldn’t eat them, Will broody hens not eat? I’ve only had to deal with two broody hens but they both weren’t as stubborn as she is.

Most broody hens only eat once a day.

Oh ok, I got worried when she wouldn’t eat because usually she is a pig and eats everything your holding. I read the link you gave me, I was just taking her out and putting her outside and bothering her but I won’t keep doing that. I have an extra coop that I can put her in, but will she get to anxious outside without going in the roosting/nesting box during the night?

Try to encourage her to roost at night, she needs to be in a secured/predator proof area at night.

Ok thank you! Do I collect the eggs so she has none to lay on?
