This is my hen missy I just noticed this today was not there yesterday. There is no puncture, and she’s acting fine walking wise and does not act like it hurts when I press on it. She is 2 she free ranges most days when it’s warm. It’s not really red / it’s spoty but it’s the same on both legs, and that’s normal because it’s cold outside like the others have but it’s swollen. My mom is a “foot

doctor” or a podiatrist and she said it feels like it is inflamed, and not an abscess. It feels firm smooth and doesn’t bother her. They do jump a lot in the coop from roost to roost but there is no lameness or anything like that. She jumped off me just fine and was putting all her weight on it. She’s perfectly normal just swollen on one side and it isn’t even her foot / toes it’s higher near her joint and the side of her leg. I just looked her over again and she actually has a scab on the other foot but there is no swelling redness or abscess. My thought is if this was bumble foot the infection would attack the other wound too. Which I can’t even find a wound on the swollen foot, she’s just got dry skin.
