Sounds Like Somebody Will Be Worming And Dusting This Holiday Weekend.
Pumpkin Is Good (raw And Unprocessed That Is...) And Does A Good Job, But Once A Yr Is Not Nearly Often Enough For Ground Dwelling Birds--- Especially New World Quail Speces Which Are 100x's More Likely To Have Difficulties Than Coturnix. Deworming Compounds Are Only Poison To The Worms... They Dont Get Absorbed Into Your Birds, The Meds Themselves Never Leave The Digestive Track... Just Go Right Through. For Ground Dwellers I Would Recommend Quarterly Deworming Schedule And Rotating Deworming Products. Many Larger Scale Breeding Facilities Also Incorporate Anti Cocci And Antibiotic Treatments In Quarterly As Well For New World Quail In Ground Pens As They Are Susceptible To Many Ailments By Being Contained In The Same Area For A Length Of Time... Cocci And Enteritis Are Just A Couple, Add Encephalitis And Parasites To The Mix Along With About 2 Dozen Other Possible Illnesses
Sevin Dust Wont Harm Your Birds Either... An Empty Feed Sack, A Likely Suspect, And A Healthy Sprinkling Of Sevin Dust--- Close Sack And Aggitate Gently, When Done Open Sack (inside Secure Pen!) And Release The Newly Deloused Suspect.... They Should Look Like A Surprized Mtn Quail Version Of Casper The Spazzed Out Ghost=== Mission Accomplished
A Thorough Saturation Of Permethrin Solution Allowed To Air Dry Will Delouse All Structures And Aviaries
If Nothing Else For Peace Of Mind And Basically Just Good Animal Husbandry For Your Stock... May Not Be Related To Your Girl's Passing In Any Way, But Preventative Care That Will Never Hurt Anyone And Can Only Be Of Assistance In Preventing Further Problems Is Always Well Worth The Trouble And Expense
