Hi I’m pretty sure I’ve got scaley leg mites in my flock. Things I’ve read says to clean out the coop throughly, but how do you clean it? Scrub? Just take the bedding out? Do I need to get rid of the bedding completely so they don’t get the mites again? This is my first time dealing with mites and I would love any advice to take care of my coop and my girls. As of now, I’m using Vaseline nightly. I discovered it Thursday night.

No one seems to be in pain on their feet, no limping or tenderness. The picture is my favorite lady!

Petroleum jelly apply daily u can add some 1-2 drops of neem oil in that
Neem oil is anti parasitic and safe
