I tried vaseline for seven days then surgical spirit 30 second dip weekly after that and she still has a lot of raised scales after four weeks.
I found this on another forum:
"I just went through a round of leg mites with a couple of chickens that came from a different flock. We started with the vaseline remedy but that was too messy. What we ended up doing is using an old coffee can and filling it with used vegetable oil and dunking the chickens legs in it up to the feathers. It is easiest done with two even though I did it myself.
We treated the chickens once a week for three weeks. They started looking better after the first treatment but didn't start laying until the fourth week.
For the coop we coasted the roosting poles with vegetable oil and sevin dust throughout. It has now been about three months and I have had no re occurrence but plan on dusting the coop again soon. "
Should I give this a go, try the same again or be more patient?
