This growth just appeared over the last few days, hen is 5 months old, just started laying... We had a horrible storm a few nights ago; thought at first it was an injury, but now looks like some sort of skin tag?

Should i snip it off? Peroxide? Iodine? I already want to cull her because of it, so if its just cosmetic, i would love to be able to fix it; she's one of my favorites...

Any advice greatly appreciated!
 
Just updating for anyone else that would be looking it up...

It was a skin tag, fell off a couple of days after the pic was taken, and all pretty again :)
 
Yeah it was weird; I was concerned it was a tumor... Turns out it was her earlobe! Must have gotten bit or something to cause the swelling, and now she has half an ear on one side... Helps me ID her now ;)
