Re: Anyone use Red Palm Oil?
Posted by cindy on 3/02/09

No don't put it on their feathers! They are supposed to eat
it and it works from within then. It will help make their
tails a brighter red in time too.

You can add some aloe and a bit of apple cider vinegar to
their bath water to help also. My vet had me do that and it
helped.

Do a web search and you can find more info.


Hope this helps..
