I AM WRITING TO YOU AFTER WE SPOKE ON THE PHONE 2 MONTHS AGO. REMEMBER…I’M THE PILOT THAT HAS THE 2 GOFFIN COCKATOOS. I INDICATED THAT WHEN WE MOVED FROM OUR HOME TO A CONDO, THE MALE GOFFIN WENT FROM BEING PLAYFUL WITH TOYS AND ACTIVE TO INACTIVE AND BEGAN PLUCKING HIS FEATHERS. HIS CHEST WAS QUITE BARE AFTER HE CREATED AN ABRASION TO HIS SKIN, HE PLUCKED HIS LEG FEATHERS, AND OVERALL HIS FEATHERS WERE DULL AND FLAT.
OVER 6 TO 9 MONTHS I CONSULTED 2 LOCAL EXOTIC PET DEALERS WHO ARE RESPECTED AND ONE OF WHICH I PURCHASED “SCOOTER” FROM. I ALSO EVEN BROUGHT HIM TO A HIGHLY RESPECTED AVIAN VET IN FLORIDA TO BE EXAMINED ALONG WITH A BLOOD TEST….WHICH WAS NORMAL. I WAS FEEDING HIM HARRISONS MASH AS USUAL AND OTHER GOOD TREATS. ALL TOLD ME THE SAME THING….JUST SPRAY HIM WITH WATER LIGHTLY EVERY WEEK. ONE OF THE PET DEALERS EVEN TOLD ME NOT TO SOAK HIM IN WATER TOO MUCH B/C IT WOULD CAUSE ALL THE NATURAL BIRD “POWDER” GOFFINS ARE KNOWN FOR TO WASH OFF AND MAKE THE BIRD LOOK EVEN WORSE….TO SOME DEGREE THEY WERE RIGHT…I TRIED JUST MISTING AND ALSO A FULL WASH DOWN…NOTHING HELPED ….HIS POOR FEATHER SHAFTS WERE STILL “GUNKY” . WHEN HE TRIED PREENING HIMSELF, IT WAS LIKE PUTTING A COMB THROUGH A TANGLED MESS AND HE COULDN’T MAKE ANY PROGRESS.
SO, AFTER I SIGNED UP ON THE BIRD FORUM WEBSITE, I PUT OUT THE WORD ……”ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR MY POOR GOFFIN”…..THE SUGGESTION CAME BACK…TRY “PLUCK NO MORE” …”I HEARD GOOD THINGS ABOUT IT” . SO, AFTER I CALLED YOU AND WE DISCUSSED AT LENGHT THE HERBAL PRODUCT TO PUT IN THE WATER ALONG WITH THE SHAMPOO SPECIFICALLY MADE FOR THESE BIRDS, I TRIED IT RIGHT AWAY….
IF SCOOTER COULD TALK HE WOULD THANK YOU….YOUR PRODUCT GAVE BACK MY BIRD A NORMAL LIFE. I USED THE SHAMPOO AS YOU SPECIFIED: I PUT HIM IN WARM WATER UP TO HIS CHEST WITH THE SHAMPOO MIXED IN AND LET HIM SIT 5 TO 7 MINUTES AND I MASSAGED HIS FEATHERS . I WAS SURE TO RINSE HIM OFF WELL AS YOU STRESSED….WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!!!! THANK YOU. IMMEDIATE RESULTS!!!
IN ADDITION, ALTHOUGH YOUR DIRECTIONS SAID TO USE IT EVERY 5 WEEKS, IN SCOOTERS CASE WITH THE RATE OF GROWTH OF FEATHERS COMING THROUGH, I FELT AS THOUGH HE NEEDED ANOTHER BATH A WEEK LATER. I REPEATED THE PROCESS AND AGAIN…..HE TURNED OUT “SILKY SMOOTH”….HE IS PROUDLY PREENING HIMSELF ALONG WITH GOING BACK TO ENJOYING PLAYING WITH TOYS ON HIS OWN WITHOUT MY TRYING TO COACH HIM..I FELL SO BAD THAT HE HAD TO SUFFER UNNCESSARILY FOR SO LONG WHEN NONE OF THE PEOPLE WHO SELL THESE BIRDS OR AN AVIAN VET NEVER MENTIONED THIS PRODUCT….SO I HOPE THAT YOU FORWARD THIS TO SOMEONE ELSE WHOSE BIRD MAY BE IN THE SAME PREDICAMENT. I WILL BE SURE TO GO ON THE BIRD
FORUM TO LET OTHERS KNOW ABOUT THIS SHAMPOO. I ORIGINALLY INTENDED TO USE THE HERBAL PRODUCT FOR HIS DRINKING WATER, BUT HAD NO NEED AFTER USING THE SHAMPOO BECAUSE IT WORKED SO WELL…..BUT I WOULD ALSO USE THE HERBAL IF NECESSARY…THANK YOU FOR PROVIDING A VERY EFFECTIVE PRODUCT!
SINCERELY,
KIM KENNY
