    Does this foot look normal?

    Is it possible she's just molting? She is a little on her neck.

    Scaly leg mites?

    I just took in a chicken that someone needed to rehome because she lived in an apartment. I noticed the front of her legs looked slightly calloused? I wasn’t sure if this was due to being inside or if she has scaly leg mites? Thank you
