Cinnamon Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I think I need to get some of this for poor Indianas sore featherless head So, online I have found Gentian Violet Spray, which is what I had assumed was the stuff I need. However, the 2 local places I have tried say that this is no longer available, but they have an Aleo Vera & Violet/purple spray. Does anyone know if its the same sort of thing? It is for minor wounds,& is also antiseptic........but as both places are equestrian shops they don't know if its beneficial for hens.

chelsea Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 The one we use is in an orange tin with a horse on the front. Its called Septicleanse I think. I did hear a rumour Purple spray was being discontinued so we bought loads of tins last year, so it might be right Sarah that some places dont stock it.

Hennubi Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I got mine from Flytesofancy too.. for poor Speckles little bare pecked botom!! I saw this morning that it had mostly come off from previous sprayings so undertook to do it myself without OH - All was going well - speckle was on the kitchen table happily eating some worms, I had the sprays at the ready, I put a calming hand on her wings- then sprayed - 30 seconds later Speckle was perched on my hat, purple spray all over me, all over floor, all over table, and speckle had a purple foot!! I dunno what work will think tommorow when I come in covered in little purple specks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
