I found this on my chicken today. Is that dry blood, or something else. If it's blood, was it another bird?

If you look closely at the base of that point, it appears that it was cut or torn. Could have gotten caught on something, fencing, wire, etc. Combs usually heal up fairly quickly. That point will likely fall off, which won't affect the bird at all. Unless you see any signs of infection, it's probably not a worry. Definitely not pox.
