Just a quick thumbs up for Aloe Juice

[SamsDad]

I read on this forum that many people reccomended Aloe Juice for thier birds feathers and skin. Well, I was a skeptic but decided what the heck, it's only $10 so I picked some up at Walmart a couple weekends ago. Last saturday I gave Sam a misting with a spray bottle. I can't say he was happy about it, but it was time for a bath anyway so I used the Aloe Juice. I just sprayed him with a few ounces until his feathers were wet and I must say, I'm sold on the stuff. I've noticed during scratch/lap time his feathers have a silky smoothness to them that they didn't have before. I don't know if it was just getting the dust off his tail, or it it was the juice, but the red coloring of the tail feathers is now very vivid red.

 

I just wanted to offer my thumb up on this product and I thank you guys for telling me about it.

There's only one brand at Walmart

 

FRUIT OF THE EARTH

100% ALOE VERA JUICE

1 GAL JUG

APPROX $9

 

 

It's in the phatrmacy section. Probably where laxatives and digestive products are sold

 

More than likely, Tom paid an extra dollar because he had the female clerk carry it all the way up to the cash register.<br><br>Post edited by: Dave007, at: 2009/05/15 03:39

Yes very good stuff, I love it! I noticed Ecko's feathers change too.

I love Aloe Vera juice. I am hoping it will help my rescued Eclectus let his feathers come back in.

You mean you spray the juice undiluted or you mix it with water?

[melissa44685]

hehe!! Thanks Dave!!

HappyinGreece,

 

I used it straight out of the bottle. Its the consistancy of water and has very little odor. It didn't roll off Sam's feathers like water does. It wet them down nicely.

 

I thought it would be thick and didn't realize it it was made to drink. Once I read the label I could see why people said it was safe for thier birds.

 

Because Sam get scratching time every evening I could tell right away his feathers felt softer and his neck feathers had a velvety feel to them.

 

I can't remember which part of the pharmacy section I found it in. I just went up and down the isles until I found it. You can't miss it - not to many things sold in gallon jugs in that area.

 

Dave - I don't think the extra cost was for her to carry it to the checkout. I think it had more to do with my saying it wasn't for me, it was for my bird. When she got to the checker area she was twirling her finger in circles at the side of her head and rolling her eyes. I think it was the $1 kookie kustomer charge. :silly:

Tom is right, you use it straight from the bottle, no dilution is necessary, its usually with the digestive remedies section in the pharmacy.

I just purchased the Aloe Juice for Chimay this past weekend...before going in I logged onto Walmart's site and searched for the item and was able to get the UPC code (just in case I needed help in the store). I just walked up to the pharmacist window and asked about it, they directed me to it with no problem.

I also went to walmart and bought some Aloe Juice for Tuki! I pick him up tomorrow morning! he will definatley thank you for letting me know where to find the Aloe! Thanks!

[Partner316]

As soon as I read this thread I went out and bought some... Sprayed it on him, and after is was all dry, I was scratching his head and like many have said they felt and looked a lot better.

{Communicate-00020110}Thumbs wayyy up for the Aloe Vera Juice too, Thanks Dave! It was ONLY 7 bucks from our Walmart out here in Ma. Ahjari Loved his Bath and Ahmani flew as fast as she could on her Boing by the window lol. There feathers are really soft and have a purple sheen to them too..

[Luvparrots]

I have always sprayed Ana Grey from day one (thanks to Dr. Flock) she is always soft and shiny. I have also been spraying Sully (Solomon, my rescued Eclectus) from the day I brought him home and ~fingers crossed~ he has not plucked yet (thanks again Dr. Flock)!

[Storm_2007]

looks like they gave carol a 2 dollar discount for the pleasure of carrying the aloe for her.

[CarolandFamily]

Lol@ Storm oh no it's just cheaper out here. I am from California and my daughter told me sales tax is NOW 9.75 :ohmy: I almost passed out! I'm glad we moved to a state that only has 5% sales tax and no sales tax on clothes and shoes! I am a shopaholic lol

[nanmadpad]

I live in georgia and only paid 7.95 for the gallon. I noticed they also sell berry flavored aloe juice. Dont want to be spraying that on your bird.
