How long do the symptoms of scaley legs last after treatment?
I’m not posting any images bc I don’t want to chase them down, but we recently took in a neighbour’s chickens after his wife died and he couldn’t look after them.
The little rooster we got had terrible scaley leg, with hard lumps on his upper legs. We treated the whole flock, but how long are these bumps going to last? And are they painful?
