[CHICKENS-101] Hurt Pullet [2 Attachments]

 

[Attachment(s) from Monkey Problems included below]

Hi folks,

Last while checking my brooder I found one of my 5 week old buff orpington pullets was down with some the others on top of her. I picked her up and she was holding one leg close. I brought her inside and place her in a box by herself. She was twitching a bit, I gave her chicksaver and some food in her box, once she had taken a little of both I introduced my 2 newest 6 day old buff orpingtons to her, they were very sweet to each other, eventually piling together for the night. She is holding her leg close, her claw seems to have no flexing power, and she hops around holding it close to her body. Not sure what else I can do, she is still taking food and water and her condition seems to be stable. 

I have attached 2 recent photos....

here's a close up of her foot
