What do you do if your well water is frozen?

I have worked on wells for years and never found any well frozen ( I live in Canada and it does get very cold here). You are possibly referring to well water that has been pumped to the surface and is in pipes or a tank. We keep all well pipes under ground at least 18 inches and insulate the pipes when they come above ground level. This is essential in any area that drops below '0' at all.

If we closed off water to repair running toilet and temperatures outside dropped and now water will not flow and fill toilet tank are the pipes frozen?

If it is just the toilet that doesn't have water, then the pipes are probably not frozen. If it is the whole house than maybe yes. If you have water at other faucets, look at the toilet and see where the blockage is. Disconnect the supply line under the tank and see if water is coming through the shut off at the toilet if there is one.
