Thanks! Do you think this could be the main reason she seems to be very inactive and uncomfortable? I can only imagine it’s painful after realizing she’s had these feet for a while now.I would not intentionally pull any scales off. When you wash the legs, if debris comes off that's fine, but you may cause some damage if you try taking them off. Let them fall off naturally.
Just apply your oil/vaseline regularly, it will smother the mites. The dirt will wear off, it's fine. I wouldn't worry about her eating the oil/vaseline, usually they won't and if she did take a taste, there's not enough to hurt her.
