Weird thing on my ducks feet!!

Are you all sure this is Bumble? Its not a round sore with a dark spot... Its just the color of its feet and sticking to the side of the heel pad and sticks out. I've just never seen it present like this.
Looks like bumble to me. This is how it presented the time I had it. Caught it early like this and never developed a spot. I went to the vet, know that's not a choice for everyone but the daily soaks became too stressful for both of us.
 
Ok don't laugh too loud but when first read the description my initial thought was plantar wart. Cauliflower looking lesions usually on the foot in humans. They are fungal in nature. Not sure how to cure a duck but in humans one of the treatments is to rub it with an emery board to stimulate the body to heal itself.
Coconut oil and Turmeric poultice for 12 hours wrapped-
 
I don’t see how this could be bumblefoot on young duckling not even outside yet. Just my opinion
Did it ever heal? My ducks have it bad and telehealth vet said bumble and they are on antibiotics but it does or look like the typical bumble. Looks just like orange warts plus they are always on fresh bedding. I’ve been using apple cider, epsom salt soaks and antibiotics but it is day 4 and they started bleeding.
 
Like I said, vet said bumble so I have been treating for that but does not seem right.

I don’t think they are bumbles I could be wrong but it just doesn’t look like it. Are you applying the antibiotic or is it by mouth? Have you ever heard of nu-stock. It’s non-toxic and says it effective on all skin disorders, deep wounds, cuts and eliminates certain growths on animal. Might be worth trying?

The vet prescribed an oral that goes by weight but my geese have since grown over 1 pound in 5 days and I called tos we about increasing and the vet never got back to me which is irritating. I don’t want be o waste my time giving antibiotics that are not enough because my birds are growing!

Trimethroprim. I also found pappillomatosis and it seems like it could be that but I am having a hard time finding what to treat viral infection with for ducks.
