Buddy has got scaly face. I noticed it last week. Ivermectin 0.1% has been ordered and apparently posted out to me last Thursday. I still haven't received it and it's now Tuesday (5 days). That's nearly a week without any treatment at all, so today I have put some Vaseline on the poor little chap. He was really good, didn't scream or shout like some of my other birds, but by gosh did he bite!!!
I am now hoping that the Ivermectin isn't going to be lost in the mail because of the coronavirus problems, haven't seen a postman for a couple of days now. Anyone else experienced postal problems?

That's a shame Shirls, hopefully it'll come soon and Buddy can be on the road to recovery. Can't say I've seen any difference in our postal deliveries here.

YES!!!! It arrived day before yesterday. He's had one dose and believe it or not is looking better already bless him. I did put some vaseline on whilst waiting for the medication, so that must have helped too. He looks a lot happier now as well.

That's good news. The vaseline does definitely help

Did all the buds today with Ivermectin. The only one that screams the roof off is Charlie, the loudest, oldest, biggest, ex-exhibition breed!! None of the others make such a noise, difficult to catch but not noisy at all.

Am so glad he is feeling better Shirls! Murph always screams the house down too, OH always thinks I'm killing him when I've only picked him up?!!!

So glad Shirls that Buddy's doing better. Here in the US I haven't noticed issues with the mail but Amazon is no longer guaranteeing next day or 2 day delivery. Things are taking 3 days to get to me. How soiled have we been!

It's great that Buddy is feeling better now. Parcels are arriving more slowly here by a couple of days.
