Does this look like bumble foot?

Hello!
I noticed these dark spots on my Swedish flower hen’s toes. They are symmetrical on both feet. I brought her inside and soaked her feet in an epsom salt bath to get a better look. I’m wondering if this is a case of bumble foot or could they just be callouses? I also noticed that my other Swedish flower hen has the same thing in the exact same spots. Is this just a strange coincidence? I don’t want to treat for bumble foot and potentially cause more problems if it’s something I don’t need to worry about.

Looks like irritation or injury, maybe from roosts, not bumblefoot yet, but could potential become it. I would treat topically with some triple antibiotic ointment daily and keep an eye on it. Check roosts, ramps, etc. for anything that could be rubbing or causing irritation.

PRID salve gets rid of it in a few days of application. It worked like a miracle on my hens and quail
