Not using his back foot at all, but fine otherwise?

[CardboardCastles]

I just took in 2 more males because they had nowhere else to go despite not wanting to. The girl had been keeping them in a 10 gallon tank and was feeding them parrot food. I just went to go take them out of the transport box and noticed one of them wasn't using one of his hind legs at all. His toes are still warm and pink, he'll push back with that foot now and again if I push on it lightly, but otherwise tucks it up and lets his toes drag when he walks. I tried rubbing along his side down along his hip, he seems to only squeak when I'm touching the leg itself...

I emailed the girl to see if anything had happened to him, but I don't have much hope she'll respond. Should I give it a day or two, or see if I can find a vet that will take a payment plan right now? Anything I can do in the meanwhile to make him more comfortable?

The infant and or childrens ibuporphen we talked about in chat. Make sure he has soft bedding and give him lots of love. :hugs:

Sprains are so common, give it a couple of days while using the Ibuprofen to see if it helps some, if it continues then I'd see the vet.
