    Scaly Leg Mites - Need Best / Easiest / Quickest Solution - Scaley

Inspected for pests, saw nothing, clipped feathers around the vents since it had white matter on it (I looked closely at the white stuff and do not think it was lice eggs, but poop remains), felt them all over for anything unusual.

    So, I only got one response to my query about this, so I'll try again here. I figure my rooster has it, so I'll have to treat him. Do I also need to treat everyone in the coop? I'm guessing yes, since I have some very young birds and slathering oil on them now would kill any mites that happen...
