hi maggie and everyone:0)
I was just wondering about my 3 year old aiko. In the last 5 days, I have found a small tail feather and today, I found two long ones. I was wondering what to make of this. IS he loosing too many feathers at once? He seems fine, sometimes he shakes..but I was trying to determine if he is ill or scared..and it seems that he is afraid of something because when he appears comfortable, he is still and fine:0)..he prefers my mom the best so, if he shakes, I put him on her hand and he stops. To me, that indicates that he is afraid, for if he was ill, would he not shake no matter where he is perching? Just wondering. I have to go file his beak and nails so I will be visiting a vet soon, however, in the mean time, I was wondering if it is normal to loose that many tail feathers in such a short time.
thanks maggie, I hope you and the flock are doing wonderful!!!!
