Your bird has scaly mite. You might be able to get ivermectin to dose the
bird with. If you email me directly I am happy to discuss this with you.

Importance: High

Hi there

I've had a Currawong come to my balcony for the past 18-24 months.  When it
first came around it's feet looked like it was covered in mulched newspaper.
It was small then and apart from the feet looked healthy otherwise.

Well in the past week it is back again since last seeing it last year, it
must be fully grown as it's a lot bigger now.  However it still has the
horrible feet and although it's not as thick, it's seemed to cope over the
past 2 years.  I live in Canterbury NSW.  Unfortunately I can't catch it
however it does let me close enough sometimes to hand feed it rye bread
(that's with hand stretched out).

Is there anything I can do or put in my tray for it to eat/drink?

I googled and found the thread from Caroline Kelly in March 2007.

Thanks
Regards
Carolyn Watkins
