Light brahma infected foot?

[A-gaspar13]

Hey everyone! Im looking for some advice on my light brahma. I believe she was picked on and now all her leg feathers are gone but now theres this bump on her leg! Does it look infected? Ive been keeping her separate and trying to keep it clean. Not sure what else to dooo help!

Put some antibacterial ointment on it. I like to suggest bag balm. It helps draw infection out better than normal antibiotic ointment will. But any will do. Keep an eye one it

Hi. I soak mine in a warm Epsom salts bath and soak. Then gently rub either hand or toothbrush (soft). Then dry and spray with iodine. Let that dry and then a thin coat of vaseline over the top. Works a treat for mine. I do this each day until heals.

Also, does anyone know if the feathers will come back?

Some pharmacy’s have it, some Walmart’s and I most feed stores. I get mine at tractor supply most of the time.

I am not sure, never had anything like this happen. My guess is maybe during the next molt.
