JDFrain 1 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Had a near miss with my male harris the other day he got pretty battered of a big female who he normally flies with (never any problems before) anyway his feathers round his quest are are pretty matted and he generally looks a bit of a mess. apart from me trying to wash him down with luke warm water and a small section of sponge just wondering if anyone has any ideas i could try to help tidy him back up, or is it just going to be time and him sorting himself out, or do i just keep doing what i am doing. (he is also not to keen on bathing himself possibly down to age 26 weeks) cheers JDF Quote Link to post

CityHunter.uK 12 Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 If he wont bathe try misting him with an atomiser this will encourage him to preen Quote Link to post
