How do I clean dirty vent feathers?
« on: March 07, 2011, 16:16 »
One of my chickens has very dirty feathers under her vent so they are a bit sticky and stuck together. Can I just wash with warm water?

you can wash her with warm water and a very mild shampoo - such as bay shampoo, then dry her with a towel and finish with a warm blow dry before putting her back out side  :)
Staffies are softer than you think.
