Anti-Pick Spray
For Caged Birds
Birds often pick at their feathers for a variety of reasons such as
psychogenic, hormonal, boredom, and/or poor nutrition. This self-mutilation
can lead to unsightly, inflamed skin, and if severe, to infections and
death. C-DERM Anti-Pick Spray was developed with medicinal plant extracts
that are known to relieve symptoms of inflammation, itching, microbial
infections, and includes an extract for sedation.
Contents:
|
The formulation includes a proprietary
extract to prevent picking, extracts of Anthemis nobilis for inflamed,
irritated skin, Organum vulgare to relieve itching, Echinacea
augustifolia for antimicrobial activity, and Passiflora incarnata for
sedative effect. |
Application:
|
To apply, restrain the bird and spray the
affected area at least 2-3 times a day or as necessary until the bird
stops picking and the feathers begin to regrow. Cover bird seed and
water dishes and avoid the bird's eyes when spraying. |
Available in 4 oz. pump spray units

Foot Balm
For Caged Birds
Pododermatitis refers to any inflammatory or degenerative condition of
birds' feet. The infection may range from very mild ( Grades I-III) lesions
common in Psittaciformes and Passeriformes species to severe (Grades IV-V)
lesions in older birds and raptors. The infection is usually due to
inadequate perches, poor nutrition, poor husbandry and/or trauma. C-DERM
Foot Balm Gel was developed from plant extracts known to help relieve
symptoms of inflammation, prevent opportunistic bacteria and fungi, and
accelerate wound healing.
Contents:
|
The formulation contains extracts of:
Chondrus (pyranoside esters), Licorice root, menthol, condensed tannins,
and pectin. |
Application:

For mild inflammed lesions, the gel can be
applied directly with gauze or cotton. Use vapor permeable dressing and
change daily. For severe infections, a veterinarian should be consulted.
After surgery, the gel will aid in wound healing and prevent
