Hi all, I have a year old Serama rooster that I THINK might have scaly leg mites. He spent time outside before he came to me, but he’s been indoors for the past 8 months (quarantine period followed by winter time). He’s on wood shavings, and eats Kalmbach grower feed or henhouse reserve.
Here’s his feet. I noticed they looked scaly, and had weird growths on them (ignore the long nails, I just noticed I had to cut them!)
I’ve only had birds for 2 years, and never dealt with leg mites before.
If it is, does anyone know the Ivermectin dose for Seramas?
Also, this same rooster has been acting a bit off - sort of straining to poop, and making noise when he did. I treated his water with Corid just in case, and have been giving him nutridrench and yogurt. He’s acting mostly normal (crowing, mating, etc), but I’m not happy with his poop. He definitely ate on his own today (He had an empty crop whenever I checked previously), and afterwards had some greenish poop
The urates look healthy at least, but I don’t like how watery and green it is. Any ideas? Just an upset digestive system?
Thanks!!
