Chicken with lump on her toe

[Farmer jr]

I have a barred rock with a lump on her toe and I thought that she broke it but it isn’t broken then I tried to get the puss out of it and it just bled and no puss came out I don’t know what to do she is getting picked on by the other chickens

Sounds kind of like bumblefoot, I'd first separate the injured chicken from the others, then look up some treatments for bumblefoot and try them.

Pictures?

 

[coach723]

Agreed, pictures would be very helpful.

 

[Farmer jr]

This is what it looks like

 

[Farmer jr]

And I don’t know what to do about it either

Ouch! I imagine that is painful when she walks. Note the scab on the bottom of the lump. good likelihood it is bumblefoot. others will likely chime in on how to treat it.

That looks like a bumble scab.

What is bumble foot I have never had it with my chickens before and I don’t know how to treat it

 

[Redhead Rae]

I've never had it in my birds before, but I know people who have.
