Leg mites?

[Henrietta17]

I have been reading posts about leg mites but I would like to have confirmation whether our chickens have them too. We have never had them before and in the summer we got some new chickens from a different place and I didn’t understand to be careful enough. I’m uploading a few pictures and hope that somebody with experience could help. Thank you for your help in advance.

Yes, they do have scaly leg mites, for quite some time.
Lots of different ways to treat it.
I just smear bag balm up under the scales once a week for a month.
It's hard to tell when the mites are actually gone,
as the scales may never go smooth again due to scar tissue.
