It works on chickens, quail, partridges and other gamebirds. It also contains a natural disinfectant with antibacterial properties, which helps soothe and protect sore, vulnerable areas while they recover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy act early?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeather pecking usually targets the vent, tail, back, feet and head. It can start as gentle feather pulling and escalate into aggressive attacks. Poultry are drawn to blood, so even a small bleeding wound can trigger cannibalistic behaviour.
