My chickens have had scaly leg mite for years now. I have tried everything. I have tried ivermectin (it did not help them but made me very sick after it touched my skin), another med a vet gave me, I have tried the natural remedies which are my go-to’s like dipping feet in olive oil with orange essential oil in it to smother them. They are currently having silver in their water which I’m not sure the results of yet. We also do ACV and garlic regularly in water, etc. I feel so badly that my babies still have this issue after all this time! It looks painful especially on my silky rooster Little Blue. (While I’m at it, there is also an issue on his comb that I would like inside about if anyone has it. It looks like white scabs. He has had fowl pox dry form before so maybe it’s a minor flair up of that?) I will post pictures of both his feet and his comb, and if you guys have any advice for me I will be glad to take it! Thank you.
