Posting for a friend…. This is her chickens foot. We originally thought frost bite due to an extreme cold snap but now we are thinking scaly mite? What’s everyones opinions? Treatment?
Whelp, my questionable chicken is a roo. Coming up on 6 months, he now crows. Here is a side pic of the brilliant white ears. Way different than my girls and their tan ears, I’m guessing he’s a mixed male that got thrown in. Do hatcherys really do that? Kinda dashes my hopes of breeding my hens...
