Is this scaly leg mite.

Not an emergency but is this the beginning of scaly egg mite?

I'm no expert but - I'm not exactly sure. Could be. @aart and @Wyorp Rock

Looks fairly normal, but it won't hurt her if you wish to rub some oil or vaseline into the legs and feet.

I agree, doesn't seem like it but wouldn't hurt. Your hen looks to have gorgeous feathers. Care to share a full picture of her?

Raised scales, sure could be mites.

Thank you I’m pretty sure my FBCM has it. So I treated a few. I’ll prob have to do the entire flock. I washed in warm soapy water. Gently scrubbed with fingernail brush. Then soaked in tea tree oil and then covered in Vaseline. I treated three hens. I wasn’t sure about this Easter egger feet. I’ll try to post pic of FBCM. She looks rough right now due to wet feathers tea tree oil and baseline. But I’m pretty sure she has it.

couldn’t really get a decent picture now she hates me. But thisis after treatment so dirt and oil and Vaseline all
Mixed in. But you can see how her scales are raised. Thanks for your support

UHG...hardest to treat are those feathered feet.
