My hen has feet mites and I was taking care of that today and found this on the bottom of her foot... Any idea on how or what to do? It doesn't seem to hurt her...

More than likely it is the staph infection coming through the top of the foot. The following is graphic, but the hen I mentioned in my first post, that is when I stepped in and performed surgery on her. Here she is before surgery:Thank you both! I just got 6 new hens this past weekend, one of those has the issue. I've never seen it before... Another question, she also have a lump on the top of her foot between the toes but it doesn't have a black scab thing in it.... Would this be the same thing just not open yet?
