    I've showed dogs for 30 years and have always heard that baby shampoo is very drying, as babies have oily scalps, would this be a problem? I have a B&G macaw and there is actual avian shampoos on the market, since I have this would it work? I am not questioning your knowledge, as I know...

    Lavender Ameraucana Breeders .... UNITE

    Think this is a grand idea, nothing to join, nobody ignoring you, everyone friendly etc. If you are willing to do the work, I think all the Lavender folks would appreciate another place to look for help.
