[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 1111098, member: 852"] I saw a couple broken legs last summer that healed well. Keep her in a small pen with easy access to hay/water - movement delays bone healing - and give her some pain meds if possible (banamine, aspirin) to keep her comfortable. Based on what I've seen before, 3-4 weeks and she should be able to be moved out into a larger pen as long as she won't be likely to rebreak it in that pen (poor terrain, pecking order issues, etc).
