Swollen Toe

[Guest peter4pm]

I noticed as of 3 days ago that one of my black ghent hens was limping and holding its right leg up ...at first i was thinking the worst (paratyphoid) but today i examined her and it seems her back toe is swollen up...nothing else just the toe .....any ideas guys ?? broken maybe ??

Tape or tie a match stick to the UPPER part of the toe, this will keep it straight until it heels
