It's either broken or bumble foot or something? How do I treat it. It is hurting him and has gotten bigger every day for the last 3 days. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi New to chickens and so far we have the one worst stains of Mareks, coccidia, too many horney roosters with frost bite and its freezing here. But please tell me green earlobes on a chicken is normal. Not sure if I could handle another sickness!

Good morning. We have Mareks, a very virulent strain of it and its breaking my heart so in the future I'm hoping to start off with the odds in our favor.
