Why is my chick limping?

[Lugrbe]

My chickens and chicks are free range in the day and are in their coops at night. The chicks live in a rabbit hutch, the chicks jump into the hutch at night,and one of my chicks started limping yesterday. I think that she might have hurt her foot while jumping into the hutch. She lays around all day. I have separated her from the other chick, she tries to walk but falls over..... she cant move around the hutch to get her food, so the food had to be moved over to her. I don't see anything wrong with her foot other than its curled up...I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, HELP PLEASE!!!

If she twisted something (her foot or leg), you wouldn't see anything. I'd bring her inside in a dogcrate or something to force her to limit movement for 48 hours or so. But do make sure you've examined the foot/leg closely to insure there's not another issue...

Sadly she didnt make it.
