I have spent too much time reading up on S&S, treatment, etc. BUT DO THEY HAVE Scaly Leg Disease at all? Both are 4 years old. They don't seem to be in pain....

Possibly early stages of SLM, but could just be worn beaten up and dry scales of 4 year old hens.

It will not hurt one thing to give them a leg spa - rub some Vaseline, Castor Oil or Nustock cream up and under the scales of the legs/feet weekly. If they do have some mites under the scales, the oil/ointment will smother them, if they don't, then they got some pampering - win/win:)

Thank you! I ordered some NuStock (from Walmart oddly) and will begin leg massages soonest...
