Im not sure what This is really But it has a Giant Black wart Looking thing I'm not sure what this is but i think it may be Bumblefoot If so How do I cure it?
 
Some of my quail get swollen toes and they usually heal without any help. Keep an eye on it, and let us know if it gets bigger or what.
 
ok But what about that Scab Looking thing on The quail? Should i leave it on? Or peel it off... And this was on the Top Of the Toe So I don't think The quail Would have stepped on something..
 
I went outside to see if they layed a Egg and the and one of the Female Quail was pecking another female Quail on the Toe/foot.....

That could be what caused it. Quail toes look suspiciously like worms to other quail an if they get a habit of toe picking its really hard to break. Do you feed them whole meal worms? If so start cutting the worms up so they don't look like quail toes anymore, that may help.
 
Just put anti biotic ointment like neosporin on it until it heals. Let the scab fall off on its own. That'll happen quicker if you put ointment on it a couple times a day.
