Infected cut or growth?

[blissmrs]

Hi there,
I noticed something on my hen’s foot last night. Today I soaked it in warm soapy water and it seems like a scab came off. I cleaned it with hydrogen peroxide and am going to wrap it in vet wrap. It doesn’t seem to bother her. Does it look like a growth or just an infected cut? I appreciate any feedback!!

I probably would not wrap it, since vet wrap can tighten and cut off circulation. I would place her on an old clean towel bedding inside a wire dog crate at least overnight. It looks like either an injury or some type of growth. Could even be a fungus from the soil. I would put some Betadine or plain neosporin on it and leave it open.

Thank you I’ll skip the vet wrap and see how it looks tomorrow after putting neosporin on it and keeping her in clean environment.

Looks like a growth.
Any other birds have it?
