Hen With Foot Growth (not bumble foot)

[dawg53]

I was thinking perhaps Footpad Dermatitis or possibly articular gout. However, articular gout usually effects both feet.

The pocket on my hen doesn't get infected. I do keep an eye on it though. I make sure to clean out the impacted gunk that builds up in it from time to time.

Looks normal....

Still not odd.

There's the pocket.

You can see how big the bump really is. She's not bothered by it. I keep the pocket cleaned out so it doesn't get bigger. She is my oldest girl, around 7.
