| The main problem which effects Painted is mosquito bite. These bites, on their legs and around their eyes become swollen, infected and eventually kills the bird. Spraying the aviary with Coopex is one way to try and prevent this. Worming regularly is extremely important as they spend a lot of time of the ground. Treatments administered in their water are taken easily. |
