Our chicken who is about a year old has a swollen and bloody toe. This is on the same leg as a previous injury from a dog bite about 10 months ago. She was healed (though her leg has since been crooked) and seemed fine otherwise. Last week we noticed the toe was really swollen and now seems to be bleeding. How can we help her? Any advice is appreciated!

Give it a good clean up to remove debris. Then get a few more photos.

See if there's pus in there that needs to be removed. Likely Bumblefoot which is an infection of the foot.
