    Chicken has a problem on skin

    Hi everyone! Today I was out with the girls and found that one has this pimple like thing on her skin. I tried cleaning the area with hydrogen peroxide and it did bubble meaning there was an infection. Has anyone ever experienced this? Thank you for all your help.
