Hey guys! I have 3 chickens, noticed one had questionable scales the other day. Pictured is her leg. This is a closed flock, these 3 are my OG hens with none others added, coop is covered and bare dirt, coop is a plastic shed with hay, hemp, and kiln dried pine shavings. They have a wooden roost. Its always been pretty dry in there and I dont let it gross, idk how they could have gotten scaly leg. I slathered them all in coconut oil and plan to give them a spa day when it heats up... thoughts? Am I wrong and her legs just look this way? Didn't notice her flockmates looking this way, but they are feather footed and she isn't so maybe harder to see.
Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
