My favorite rooster is about 7 years old, a wonderful gallant fella who takes great care of his hens.
About 2 months ago we noticed him occasionally stumbling and his legs looked a bit scaly perhaps although not like any pictures. He does NOT have any evidence of bumblefoot, which we are...

However, not such a great idea...
