Can you get someone to hold the chickens leg out and pull the feathers back?

Is there any chance that a piece of string or twine from a feed bag may have wrapped around that leg. I have seen this happen. You need to bath and clean that leg and have a very close look. I would take this one to the vet, cause you are going to need a course of antibiotics . If you find something cutting into the flesh you need to act fast.
