If leg mites, i think you soak in warm water, pat dry, add petroleum jelly

Scalys do get swollen a lot. Some worse then others. Heres a bad one. (Off google, not mine)That's pretty darn swollen for mites, but if so, I always used something that folks can't believe works..but oh boy does it! I buy the lice spray from a pet shop .says for canaries..works great on chickens too.. imagine that!
She does have Bumblefoot on the bottom of the foot.View attachment 2993413thank you all so much for your help! she does have scaly leg aswell wich im in the process of treating too. the bottom of her foots a little dirty and it doesnt seem that swollen in the photo, but im sure its bumblefoot. im scared to cut it out though but i guess there is no other choice thank you guys again for all your help
The top of the foot is not Bumblefoot - Your hen has Scaly Leg Mites, that's what all that crusty stuff is.
Clean the legs and apply vaseline, castor oil or NuStock to the legs. Work the oil up underneath the scales of the legs and feet. Apply the oil/vasline or cream at least once a week. As the legs heal, those crust will fall off.
She was likely offering help based on the title of the post. And it's an excellent comment for those of us experiencing bumblefoot for the first time. The OP originally thought she had a BF issue so no reason to call out someone trying to help based on the OP's post title.Where do you see Bumblefoot in the OP's photo?
Good tutorial and photos for Bumblefoot, but not for SLM!
