Information post 🌞 ☀️ 🔥 🥵
Hows everyone's GF fairing in this heat?
Iv noticed alot of my males have been running alot less than usual. I think it's getting to them poor things.
Friendly reminder to keep water readily available at all times, extra water bowls are always a good idea. Keeping it in a shaded area.
Especially in caged birds. Knocking one over in the heat we have been getting can be catastrophic. Guineas can over heat very quickly due to their metabolisms and their constant go go go attitude.
Making a damp dust puddle is another great idea. Cooling them down whilst they bathe.
Frozen peas can be a cooling treat if too hot. But in general, cool water and damp ground is the best methods.
If you find one that appears to be suffering from heat exhaustion, bring it somewhere cool, but not cold. Dampen under their wings with cool water and sometimes syringing water can help but overall bringing them to a cooler darker area till they recover is enough. Making sure water is always readily available.

How are their owners fairing in this same heat?
The sun has been an absolute scorcher of late.
As you all know iv stepped back from breeding Guinea's this year, into my skincare buisness. One of the products I have rolled out is a natural ingredient sun barrier cream. Harsh Rays Day Cream!
It's set and forget, won't wash off in the water and feels extremely light on the skin.

Iv also used it on one of our dogs pale nose, that seemed to get a little bit redder than usual. It's ingredients are all safe for external use and in places the can't actively reach to lick. So great for sunburnt noses.
Orders need to be placed through www.beneficialbasicsskincare.com.au
