FINCHforum

Hi everyone. one pair of my zebra finches keep losing feathers and their skin becomes oily. feathers fall by themselves and as well when i hold them.
i took pictures of the female. her skin is in bad shape with visible injuries or rash.
took them to several vets, applied all possible ointments and vitamins, calcium drops, etc
but this issue still remains. even on her left foot you can see some sort of swollen pulpy thing. it doesn't go away.
please help.

I must say that I have never seen anything like this.

Personally I wouldn't slather them in any creams and ointments, but that's me.

I'd offer a healthy and varied diet, daily baths, and sunlight.

Sorry that I can't offer more help.
