    could it be mites on his feet and shanks?

    It looks like the start of leg mites. I believe 1 of our hens looked like this while another rooster and hen had it worse. If you treated right away, it may clear up quickly. We treated our hen for about 2 weeks and her legs looked very healthy after. The other 2 took much longer.
