I think one of my girls has bumblefoot. I've never seen it in person, so I'll share some pictures below just to be sure (tried washing her feet with the hose but that didn't work too great).
I have found lots of good info on bumblefoot surgery. I want to use a biopsy punch rather than a scalpel, but I don't know if I can find one local (any ideas on places to check?). Can treatment wait a week for shipping? She is limping pretty badly and I have her separated from the flock. I of course don't want her to suffer for my convenience though.
Does this look like bumblefoot? And if so, is it best to just get on with it as soon as possible?
