Bumblefoot? Broken toe? Something else?

I have a two-year-old Welsummer, Speedy, with a swollen toe joint. She seems to be getting around on it fine. It is pretty hard, and doesn’t seem to be discolored or have any heat in it. I’m not sure if I should try to treat it with something or just leave it alone and keep an eye on it.

Here are a few pics of the foot/toe.

And one of the other foot for comparison.

I have a hen with the same thing. I left it for the last week to see if she just hurt it but the lump is still there. She is limping a bit on it and holding the foot off the ground sometimes. Is this bumble foot or something else. Not sure what I should do to treat it
