Pecking ex batts
« on: March 27, 2010, 11:23 »
Two of my ex batts have got open sores on them on their backs (rear end). What can I do to 1, treat them and 2, stop the pecking? Please help, Ron.

 You could put some gentian violet on the sores so it does not show the redness that the other girls are going for but be careful when you spray it because if you get it on you it is hard to shift. You could also get a beck bit and put that on you can order them from the domestic fowl trust. You can also get the gentian violet from their.
