dw310 Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 Morgan will be 7 months old in a few days. In the past 2 days, I have found a bizillion (OK, maybe 30) white, downy feathers in his cage. This is a lot more than usual. Is this OK? Could he be molting? Thanks for your thoughts!

judygram Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 It does sound like he is starting thru a molt and you will see lots of downy feathers, all is normal and don't fret as the old ones fall out and new ones come take their place. Morgan might benefit from more frequent baths and spritzing with aloe vera juice as it helps with dry skin and helps to soften the keratin covering on the new pin feathers.
