Anyone know what this is?

Is it hard and 'crusty' or softish?

Looks like some kind of warts to me.

More precisely: Viral Papillomatosis.

Seems to be kind of soft but firm if that makes sense

Whats the temperature there

Mid-70s right now... We live along the coast and it stays fairly warm here

Didn't realize chickens could carry it till now..
Since it's viral is it harmful to the rest of my flock like pox is?

I would also guess that the lesion is a group of papillomas, but was wondering if it could be some type of insect eggs.

That crossed my mind too.

Not sure, it's dark now. I'll look and take more pictures tomorrow..it looks like a cluster of warts but we haven't dealt with this before

If it's papillomas, what would be the best course of action?
