feather pecking

Daisy wearing her new clip to stop her pecking Bella

Poor Bella's rear end.

At first I felt bad about doing this to a poor helpless creature, and Daisy was quite upset about it and made a lot of growling noises, but later on I saw Daisy raising herself up to her full height and pecking down on Bella's neck in a very aggressive manner. She can't hurt Bella now and is really mad about it.
The clips are made of softish plastic and are easily fitted, but you really need 4 hands to do it.

Oh, poor Bella. I hope her feathers grow back quickly. I fear our Rita would have looked like that if Angie hadn't given Hazel (the agressor) a new home. To help Bella's regrowth I suggest adding Avia Charge 2000 to the water. Rita's feathers started coming in much more quickly when I did that. I don't know if you can get it in the UK, I had to order it on line here. It is an all-natural supplement with tons of vitamins and fish/kelp meals.
