Foot Problem on Chick - Bumblefoot? *Pics*

It doesn't look like bumblefoot to me either. Not sure what it is.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I didn't think it quite looked like bumble foot either, which is why I asked for help. This chick doesn't perch. It is too young still and too cold. It sleeps in a nest box under mom. All the perches have a least 6 inches of wood shavings under them as well.

So, assuming this is frostbite, what would you all suggest? I also have another hen that looks like she has just a bit of frostbite on the tips of her comb. Do I have to remove the dead tissue? Will it be alright to leave it and let it heal and fall off on its own?

a bunch of my red star hens got frostbite last winter on their combs, and the tips just dry up and fall off. Extreme frostbite can get gangrene though. I'd be really careful with that chick's feet, and keep them clean. Put neosporin on them. They should heal up. If not, you might have to cull her.
