Wart on chicken? Got a picture, please help! :0

[chickiyo]

So I found a wart on my chicken, Akaky today...:/pretty confused as to what it might be. I only found one, and it isn't dark, it does have a couple freckles on it. Please help! I am kinda worried,

I am a pretty new chicken owner.

That is an oil gland.

An oil gland? What is that, how is it supposed to look like?

Looks normal to me...they use the oils from that gland to clean and care for their feathers. Watch how they preen and you'll see what I mean
