Early stages of bumble foot?

[Cinnamon11]

I have never had to deal with bumble foot but have seen some videos of it and was wondering if this is an early stage of it? If so how do I deal with it? I did try to clean it off

Seems like bumble foot. As it is in early stages, try soaking the foot in a solution of Epson salt and warm water.

Thank you! Is there a way to stop it besides that? Can it kill her? How do I stop the other ones from getting it

It's not contagious (luckily). To prevent it for the future, clean their area on a regular basis. Have your perch 18 inches from the floor (you don't have too, just not too high up). Sand all rough and sharp edges in the coop

If left untreated, it could potentially kill the chicken.

Thank you! Thankfully she is friendly so I just spent about 20 minutes soaking her feet in ebson salt. What do I clean it with? Should I Wrap it with bandages? Sorry I have so many questions she’s 6 yo so I worry about her!

I do clean often they have multiple perch’s some only inches off the ground some about 2 feet

Do wrap her foot in medical wrap, yes.

Sounds good! Should I separate her? I have a broody box that is the perfect size for 1 chicken.
