You mentioned that you are almost sure it has a broken arm. I am no vet, but another possibility is it might have some kind of metabolic bone disease. Some of the signs are: one or more limbs may swell up, and the arms tremble when they move them, swelling of other limbs. Either way, your better off taking it to the vet to give you a diagnosis, and treatment. Look up MBD though, a few years ago, I also thought my ig had a broken arm and it turned out to be mbd. If you catch it early, sometimes you can take care of it yourself, by correcting the way you keep and feed your ig. Once again, you are better off taking it to the vet.

Good luck
