angeluk69 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 I picked up my Coral in the run today as she is a little bit soaked bless her, none of mine seem too clued up about the fact that they do have shelter to stand under and noticed she has what can maybe only be described as quite matted feathers at the top of her wings where she tucks her head in. Is this something that will resolve itself or is ther something I could/should do? She doesn't seem bothered by it, and I've had a look to make sure there's no bugs lurking in the area. It's just that in the rain it doesn't look very nice/is more noticeable. Or am I just being a worry wart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egghead68 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Are there any secretions coming out of her nostrils that are causing the feathers to mat? Has she always tucked her head into her feathers or is this a new thing? Mine only do it if they are ill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angeluk69 Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 I've brought her in tonight an bathed her and blow dried her, which has definitely improved things. She sleds wit he beak unde he wing so am thinking it may jus be a case of rubbing, and things gathering in a camped space, she loved being washed and dried she at on my knee for the best part of an hour and jus chilled out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
