miffy Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 After a couple of softies from Violet (!) I did a search on here and read about LS flour & CL Oil, I have purchased them and given some as per Eglutines advice this evening however I am unsure if it is ok for Violet only or if its ok for Daisy as well. No eggs from either today (never happened before) and they are both possibly molting. Im not sure what is moulting and what is the result of feather plucking any more.

Ain't Nobody Here Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I'm giving both to all my 3 girls too. All their shells are a bit fragile at the moment so they obviously all need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budgies Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Give it to both of them for now - probably easiest anyway as you can add the cod liver oil to their pellets or meal and mix the limestone flour into that. They will use it if they're moulting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miffy Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 Thank you !!! will continue to give it to both, will a week be enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I dose them all with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budgies Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 See how things are after that week A moult can take up to 6 weeks but I strongly suspect they won't do long moults at this time of year. Once their new feathers are in you can stop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Just a thought......have you checked them and their housing for signs of external parasites? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
