Hello, I have a year old bantam whom i just rescued. I noticed that her feet are peeling. What is wrong with her, and how can I treat it?

ok thanks.

ok thanks.

You are welcome! You can coat the legs in vaseline to help. I've heard of some people treating them with ivermectin. Best of luck!

Thanks, I drenched her feet in warm water and applied vaseline. should I just let her walk around?
