One of my piggies who is about 2 years old is not walking on her back left leg. She does not seem to be in pain as I've touched her leg and she fine with it being touched. I haven't noticed any changes in her behaviour as she is still walking and eating as normal.
 
Oh dear., she will need to see a vet to find out what has happened. She may well be in pain but unfortunately piggies are excellent at hiding illness and pain but the vet will know best and be able to prescribe pain relief if needed

Please see a vet; it is hopefully just a bad sprain. Please be aware that the injury can happen in any place along the leg, starting from the hip joint. It is not necessarily located just in the visible part of the foot or leg.
