What do you use to whiten a White Silkie?

[shay20]

Hello, I waited to long to clean the feet of my white silkie and white showgirl.

I need to know whats best to use to get the yellow out of there feet feathers.

I have to bring them to a show tomorow.

Any suggestions?

I was thinking we should keep this thread going for others to get idea' aswell, Just like you guys helped me out.

Maybe a soak in lemon juice or buttermilk?

Use an whitening shampoo for dogs/cats. The ones with the blueing agent are the best.

I'd use an dog or cat whitening shampoo and have heard but not tried the can of sprite over the animal as a rinse. It has to be from a can.

Sprite? wow I love these rememdys, these all thing i can try in one night without harming my birds.
thanks you guys.

When they dry i will try the lemon thing, Then i will have to go to the store to find a dog cat shampoo, and a can of sprite.

I tryed the eye whightner for dogs, and so far they still have the yellow.
I used that before and it worked but not this time.

You could also try some Dawn dish soap.

I heard people use shout or spray and wash to get stains out of white silkies.
