Limping on one foot please help

[jessicafaith992]

Can anyone help me with this? This is my Easter egger that is 2months old, started limping the other day and it hasn’t gotten better... accommodates significantly when walking on anything other than pine shavings. tonight I noticed this- and I did dab a small amount of hydrogen peroxide on one spot to see if it bubbled and a small bit of bubbling was noticed in the crevice of the foot (circled). Everything else is fine (eating and using the bathroom ok etc) anyone have any suggestions or advice ?

Peroxide will bubble up on the feet as it's the dirtiest part of it's body, my opinion
The feet looks fine but seeing some "redness" .... Bedding is pine shavings, how/where is it being kept? Coop? If so are there any roosts? Free range? Have you checked under it's feet? Could you post a video? To post a video, you up load on You Tube then attach to here.

What are you feeding? Is it the only chick you have or are there others? It's possible a sprain/bruising from jumping or stepping wrong.

Thank you for your response ! It is with its sibling right now in an enclosure separate from my other four that are older and in a coop... since they are younger than my others, they’ve been introduced slowly under supervision. It started limping the other day while I was outside (my yard is small and fenced in)- I was watching them all closely. The one red spot in the crevice is what bubbled, not the whole foot... I cleaned off the foot prior nothing under the feet either. Nor any change in behavior. I will have to take a video when it’s light outside. They get their normal starter feed, some scratch, and mealworms as treats. Also the occasional blueberries, strawberries, tomatoes that I grow myself.
