"works like a champ and smells awesome to boot!!"

β€” Sherry

"This is a lotion so takes a long time to dry. So until it dries, it will stain whatever it gets on. To distribute it on the bald spot on my chickens back, I used my finger which stained it purple. I can’t really say if the product works to prevent pecking, because I really didn’t want to use it..."

Bottom Line

Overall, users felt the lotion is satisfactory but bulky and harsh in smell with a mixed review on its durability.
