stew 75 Posted March 24, 2014 Report Posted March 24, 2014 a old remady years a go for feather rot was brush area with parrafin if nothing works give it try
William Reid Posted March 24, 2014 Report Posted March 24, 2014 Cydectin 24hr treatment .problem solved .
Delboy Posted March 25, 2014 Report Posted March 25, 2014 The human treatment for scabies also works on feather rot
just ask me Posted March 25, 2014 Report Posted March 25, 2014 my guess its a mite fungal infections are not that common get cydectin (moxidectin) job done also be careful with giving out instructions on doses as the strength of treatments can vary a lot
