I might suggest after you have this issue under control to raise her protein level(tuna) and several warm baths when the weather is warmer to get her ready to moult.This will help with cage birds so you might give it a try with her. Also you asked what else to try for the scratch, try cinnamon or honey or mix to get it to stick.

I know of one in May, Saturday the 11th, in Mukilteo call Inspiring Hope. I will be there.
My younger brother(by6yrs.) went through this from about 8 to 12 yrs. Then i watched his 2 sons have the same problem, at around the same age. I think it is anxiety, probably about how they fit into their world. When they find what gives them confidence it seams to disappear. I hope this helps some, my observations over about 50yrs.I can't ask this on facebook since my husband and now my son is on there ~ Has anyone dealt with facial tics or any other tics, either in themselves or their kids? My son has always been a little..strange, in a charming way, but his tics are a little more weird lately, and he's starting middle school this year. We are concerned about what is going to happen in middle school if he can't control it a little. We are dealing with some jerk mean kids at his school right now, unrelated to his tics, but it doesn't help I'm sure. It's all very draining. He was elbowed in the face during a basketball game during recess last week and chipped a front tooth. The tooth is fixed, and things are changing at school (thanks to one loud mother--ME!) What can I do to help him with his tics though? We took him to a doctor again today and basically he says, wait and see. Watch him and see if it gets worse. Help him learn to relax and decrease anxiety. Increase his physical activity (I started swimming lessons this week for both kids again and we have already been walking greenlake once a week and encouraging him to ride his bike) We are decreasing TV/video games, he already has no caffeine, I am getting him more active. Considering hypnosis to help him relax. His tics change over time, each will last a few months to a year and then just disappear, and be replaced by another. Some are a little weird but tolerable, some are kind of creepy. His most recent one has been scrunching his eyes over and over again while talking, sort of a furrowed brow look. That has been going on for many months. But this week he started doing this thing moving his mouth way over to his right. Last year he had severe eye rolling, always to the top left. Two years ago it was *constant* coughing. It never ends.
I am bipolar and have general anxiety issues, but have gotten it under control in the last year and a half (I genuinely believe the chickens have helped!). I don't want him to take 38 years to be happy
