A More Feathered Cookie!

A More Feathered Cookie!

Hello again from cookie,well its been a little while since i was started on this new treatment to stop me from plucking and i have to say i am getting some new feathers!!

Yes cookie is doing well and i think we may have cracked it,i found a remedy from northern parrots and thaught i would give it a try.Its called PLUCK NO MORE,NATURAL HOMEOPATHIC REMEDY-177ml it does cost £34-99 and depending on how severe the plucking is can take a few months,you put some in the drinking water and some with water in a spray bottle and spray the bird up to four times a day and let them dry naturaly,but while you are giving this treatment you dont give the bird any fresh fruit or veg.

I have just used the last of my first bottle and judging by cookies new growth i hope we will need only one more bottle,he does feel so soft and is not scratching as much as he did when he first came to me,i also give poppy and spike the odd spray and they quite like it.

It is also good for dogs would you beleive?.

I do hope this information does help any of you who are in the same situation,

Will try and add up some photos

Luv cookie and Angela.

Cookie Update!

Sorry its been a while since i left news of cookie but my computer has been down,well cookie is still plucking oh yes he had me fooled and i have desperatly been trying all sorts of things to stop it,he is constantly out of his cage,but it is realy habit now.

I have just started using a new liquid which has been used for some time in america and they say it takes up to five months (in realy bad cases)you measure out some to go into the drinking water,also some to go into a spray and saturate them four times a day letting them dry naturaly so will give this a try and keep you all updated.

Cookie is so sweet and likes to be out of his cage as much as possible and is starting to realy bond with me,he and poppy come out together and do a little sparring but nothing serious,they constantly chat together,call ,squark sing even,though not so well i might add but hey what the heck we enjoy it.

Cookie and poppy love to help mum to eat her lunch,tea,stealing my cooked veggies and fruit, but when she is ironing we have the best time cos we scream and yell but she cant escape cos shes stuck in the corner behind the ironing board tee hee,well she has to say goodbye now cos i need my last good spraying so i am nice and dry before bedtime,so will be in touch soon

Cookies Update!

Cookie is a lovely boy,he has been with me for a couple of weeks now and is still surprising me with new words,but now he is spending more time out of his cage ,getting him back in is getting difficult.HE BITES,oh yes my gentle boy becomes quite a little devil for a while.

I must admit i do have a bit of a giggle,although he has managed to get me twice,then he had a giggle.He and my poppy are calling to each other and its lovely to just sit and listen to them both,and i am so pleased to say cookie has stopped plucking fingers crossed so keep a watch oiut for the next update i will add some photos soon too.
