I have noticed this on one of my girls.
She has had it about 1 week.
I don't know if she cut it or how the sore came about.
She is full freerange bird, with supplement feed.
I cant think of any more information to guide.
How shall I treat it please

Well I'm not sure, but I'll bump you up. My only piece of advice would be to perhaps soak the foot in warm, soapy water. I have no experience in this area, but I see no way in which water and soap could hurt. Hope this helps,

Clean it with warm soapy water, put some Neosporin without the painkiller on it, and keep her isolated in a small area to keep her off of it for a few days.
 
She is not limping and it doesn't seam sore when I touch it.
I haven't seen her pecking at it
I will do the warm water and neosporin thing
 
If it's bumble foot you'll need to keep an eye on it.

If she starts limping you'll need to do more.

My 14 year old son treated our white rock hen for bumble foot. Took him two weeks of regular surgery and changing dressings but she's doing great now and lays almost every day.
