    Scaly leg mites

    Thank you for asking. He is doing much better! Still areas that are red..but not angry red. Think it is just because the scales are gone in those areas of the legs. One foot is almost completely healed and the worst one looks good as well with just 2 small areas that still look like they...

    Scaly leg mites

    Would love to have some opinions about what i need to do for him now! One thing we have learned from this is... if hubby comes towards him... he cackles and keeps moving just out of arms reach... hahaha. Cause daddy gets him and brings him to me to do treatments. Hahaha But the weird thing...

    Scaly leg mites

    This may be the best for the bump i referred to... there are 2 black feather spots and a dry patch ... maybe can see that there is a lump in that area as well.

    Scaly leg mites

    LEFT LEG. this is the side that had blood feathers. You can enlarge to see hopefully. This foot had begun to look dry in places and thinking it could be epsom salt i started putting spray on it and then triple antibiotic on the dry areas to put a greasy salve on it. One pic shows an area that...

    Scaly leg mites

    RIGHT LEG - looks much better than the other one. He had just soaked 20 minutes and been blow dried, so may look a little more red than before soak. This one has began putting these little quills out and it must hurt because he does NOT like me touching any part of it. Azygous on original...

    Scaly leg mites

    This morning when i soaked i paid close attn to how it looked before soaking. It is not nearly as red before soaking plus the blow drying on lowest setting unless i go air only .. also contributes to it looking more angry than before treatment. I will get a pic to show what i mean then you let...

    Scaly leg mites

    This is now and before of the leg and foot that had the blood feathers that kept wanting to drip again when touching at all for soaking or medicating. This looks much better, even some of the broken bent quill pins are beginning to stand out again instead of being crushed down against leg.

    Scaly leg mites

    Tried to put before and now together?? Not all the pics were great tonight ... it got dark and he was begging to go inside the coop! He could hear sounds from the girls and he really wanted to be done!! Hahaha. But he had already soaked, blow dried, and legs been sprayed down. So in the...

    Scaly leg mites

    It is so special of you to ask about our boy! He is continuing to look better. The only place that still looks bad is the most swollen area at the foot/leg that was so swollen where his feathers were. Of course all cleaning, medicating etc i do very gently and you could always tell how sore...

    Scaly leg mites

    Tha Thank you so much for asking! I am glad he got the epsom salt soaks and the antibiotic ointment right away because i did not have on hand what our chix guru's told me to do, but i think by doing that it prevented bad infection until i could get what i needed! Last night was the first time...

    Scaly leg mites

    Thank you. The coop is very clean .. just 10 days ago we scraped the bottom clean. Put in 3 inches of sand topped with 3 inches of pine shavings. My roost has the table catcher under it so the heavy night time droppings are easily scooped out daily. It still smells very good in there so far...
