I noticed this on a hen, this morning. She was walking a little funny, with her tail feathers pointing down. I thought maybe a stuck egg and gave her a bath. She doesn't have a stuck egg, but has this on one of her feet. Any ideas? Thank you
 
That looks like bumblefoot to me. To treat, remove all the pus and core from the callus, then clean pad thoroughly and treat with a bacteriode. Separate bird from rest of flock on soft, thick bedding with easy access to feed and water until it gets back on it's feet. Good luck!
