Is this scaly leg mites?

[Christina.Rich]

Hi everyone,

I went to a local auction held by a poultry club yesterday and came home with a pair of white Cochin bantams. The rooster has bumblefoot, which I am in the process of taking care of. However, I think he also has scaly leg mites.

Please take a look at the pictures and let me know your thoughts. If it is, how do I treat it? How long do I have to segregate him? Is it easily treatable? Any info or experience you have will help me tramendoisly.

Also FYI-his toes/foot are severely deformed which I’m aware of. I’m going to rehome him to a pet home but want to get him better first of course.

I believe if you smother his legs with Vaseline or balm oil it will get rid of the scaly keg more. His beak is also overgrown.

You can also soak legs in a jar of olive oil.
Good luck with him!
