Hi,

I have a flock of about 40 hens. After finding pictures of what scaly leg looks like, I have confirmed ALL my hens have it! I think I must have brought it home from the county fair or somewhere like that. However I got it, I'm just wondering how to treat 40 chickens. I don't have time to soak each of their legs for 10 minutes each day. And since I have dogs, cats, and goats around the chickens, I don't want to use any pesticides or stuff like that. Please Help!

Most times this is caused by mites
I would use pet rx mixed with warm water in a spray bottle. Use some seven dust in your nest and runs to kill the mites. Mix some diatomaceous earth where that take dust bath. If you have sores after about 10 days then use some antibiotic cream on the legs.
Good luck
