That sounds manageable! I’ll definitely try it. How do you monitor their legs for early signs?
I find it helpful to check their legs every few days. If there’s any scaling or crusting, I take action right away.
Has anyone tried natural remedies, or are medications the way to go? I prefer to avoid harsh chemicals if possible.

I think natural remedies can be effective! Essential oils mixed with a carrier oil as a leg rub do wonders. Just be cautious with dosages!
That sounds interesting! Has anyone had any adverse reactions to essential oils?
I haven’t heard of any significant issues, but every chicken is different! Always patch test first, just to be safe.
That’s a great point! Sometimes the smallest things can lead to big problems!
True! It’s like finding a needle in a haystack when they get infested. Remember, if you do notice any signs, be proactive!
