Absess on goat kid hoove?!

[000]

Hello! I have a young and very tiny Nigerian dwarf female that has an abscess on her hoof. It looks like it pushed part of the hoof off. I'm not sure what to do or what would have caused this... Any ideas? Thanks

Trim it and open it so it can drain.These things are usually caused by an injury of some sort.
