Two week old chick with sprained leg

[jordiefromtheflock]

My two week old salmon faverolle started limping yesterday. Her left leg seem to be bothering her. She doesn’t out a lot of weight onto it and when she’s laying down, it sticks out to the side. She is still eating and drinking, I did move the food and water closer to her radiant heat brooder. The other two chicks in the brooder aren’t bulling her so I don’t want isolate her. How to help her? Can I splint her leg?

Is it splayed possibly?

I don’t believe so. She walks with it under her just with a limp. She only puts it out to the side when laying down.
