      Tbh ... I have chalked tails before when I couldn't shift a stain 😂 but you do loose that silkiness and shine

    PS what is woodflour? Is it really wood?

    • @raversmead
      @raversmead  2 роки тому +3

      Yes, it's really wood. It's very fine sawdust with all the lumpy bit's filtered out 😊 The ones branded for this kind of use will generally have chalk mixed in as well which acts as a whitener.
      I remember back in the beginning when we had no clue what we were doing, we actually used baby powder on their feathers! That was not cheap I can tell you 🤣

      @@raversmead Apparently baby powder is also a carcinogen, as per recent research. I haven't read the research, but heard it in the media.

      @@cattymajiv yes, talc has been called out as carcinogenic in recent years. I used to use it when I was younger (cringe)
      I believe the issue lies with inhalation of the dust

    No rinsing of wood flour?
    Also, I never heard of it, I hope ill be able to get it in Czech republic!

    • @raversmead

      Nope 😊 it stays on the feather and dries on, adding volume and a lovely crisp whiteness. All I do is give them a light brush in the morning and he's show ring ready.
      That's mind blowing to me that your watching from the Czech Republic!! ❤️
