Early Signs of Scaly Leg Mites?

Hi all,

This is my sweet Rosie. She is 2 1/2 years old, and I noticed some of her leg scales were a little raised about 6 weeks ago, and they still look about the same.

Any thoughts about what this might be??

They don't look too bad to me. As chickens mature the scales can enlarge a bit on some. If you are concerned you could try treating them to see if they improve.

Wow, that is such great and simple advice. I'll just give it a try and see what happens. Thanks!
