Silkies with horrible looking feet.

If there's a lot of hardened stuff, I would make a warm olive oil foot bath for them. Could keep it in a suitable sized pan for them for a while. Soak the feet every day in it for a few weeks. Just make sure u are peeling off gooky stuff and not scales or skin. This is not something that's gonna be fixed soon. Encourage them to walk at least a little every day, feed a foot away so they have to go to it...
 
I know that I read a thread somewhere where someone used the elector as a leg dip, so I would think that if you used the same dilution that you would use for spraying them that it would be OK. Honestly, if I was dealing with really bad ones like this, I probably would. The gas may have already gotten them, but it's hard to say with so much detrius built up.
I think finding a mixture to do a full dip in is the key, and the powder just in case, I am going to tractor supply Monday, I will check it out, thanks!
