Hi Luke,
My name is Anita Trichel, I am a veterinarian but am not an Avian vet. So 
I am not an expert but have treated birds and own and breed birds. If the 
diagnosis is scaley leg mites I would suggest finding an avian vet or a 
vet that knows something about treating birds and let him take a look.  
One of the treatment for scaley leg mites is an oral dose of ivermectin. 
The treatment is simple to do, should be inexpensive, and you should see 
results.  Also the bird will be much happier without parrafin all over its 
feet!
I hope this helps.  Anita.
