when I got these girls they were so red in all the bald spots which on a few were more than feathers. I was so sure they would never grow features. Ron told me to give them feather fixer and calf manna. Wow, they are really recovering. The one looks like a porcupine because she has so many pin feathers growing. The redness is slowly going away, turning to a nice pink skin....
There are instructions for poultry on the bag--it is mixed into the feed by weight. You can also toss out some like scratch.
