Thank you for all of your help!
What an improvement! Keep up all you're doing because it's working!
Red mites are just awful. I think it's just coincidental to the feet issue, though it's possible the little blood suckers have aggravated things. You will need to be persistent in getting rid of them. Spraying permethrin or spinosad deep into all the crevices in the coop is crucial since that's where the mites live and breed. Another round of spraying in about ten days needs to be done to get any that new ones that have hatched.
