Fancy, how does the vicks vapor rub differ from vaseline, and how many applications would be needed for scaly leg? Do you need to do it daily or every second/third day, and do u need to slather the legs in it like vaseline? Can you mix the two?
I'd say my pekin Esme has a mild to moderate case. I can take pics tomorrow if need be for a better estimate of treatment duration. I was using for about four days vaseline on her feet, it softened the scales and some along with bits of crud came off on their own, but I don't think the infection is all cleared up though, as she's still standing still a bit and sitting down on the ground. I had planned to dip her legs in malaban wash once a week or so, but now I'm not sure. Her feathers are still greasy from the vaseline even after a bath. Ugh, I think I've just done too much googling and it's backfired and made me confused. I like the skin softening properties of vaseline but hate the greasiness as it rubs off on her feathers.
