Hello--You need to get your bird to a vet immediately! Try to catch her in a soft cloth--like a wash cloth--and put her in a travel cage. And get her to the vet immediately--preferably an avian vet.

Good luck.

I agree with Anon. Get your bird to an Avian vet immediately!!! They will hopefully be able to fix her legs if seen to fast enough.
Birds are on their feet constantly, it is sooo important to get her treated ASAP.
I'm assuming she is clipped and that is why she had a hard landing? grrrr!
