Strange Foot Condition

[ConfusedCluck]

A few chickens in my flock have this strange foot problem, it makes the scale on their feet stick up and eventually they fall of and their toes start getting infected...I was recre,ended to use some detole to get rid of this suposed foot fungus but I am not really sure what it is. Some people say it's foot mites and others say its a fungas or warts...

Try the illnesses and emergency section.

Welcome to BYC. Sounds like scaley leg mites. Rub vaseline on their legs to smother the mites. It might take a month or so to completely get rid of them.
