We recently acquired a hen with a lot of feathers on her feet. I picked her up today as I noticed a little limp and thought maybe something stuck in her foot. I see she has scaly leg mights really bad on her feet. I also felt up the back of her leg these hard nodules that go up the back of her leg. The look very thick and crusty. Could this be the work of scaly leg mites as well? I have only seen them on their toes. I have coated them with vasoline . Wivasoline work on the big crust nodules or is there a better solution? Is there hope when their legs are this bad.
I really want to get her taken care of right away. Thanks for your help!
