Comb Reddening in a cleaning kit? What is in it?

[kangareaux]

So, I saw a chicken cleaning kit and it had "comb reddening" in it. It's in a plastic container like face cream would come in, but I don't know if it's cream or powder or whatever. My real question though it WHAT'S IN IT?!?!? Is it a hormone? An irritant (ACK!)?

Anyone know?

I don't know what it is but in my opinion a healthy, well fed bird will be good and red where it applies.

What's the name of the product, and from what company?

APA/ABA folks routinely use "Vetrex" to enhance the red of combs for exhibition. It's just fine.

I like that stuff on combs and also for respiratory infections.
