moddo422 Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 when do these birds go through there molting??
Dave007 Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 Generally, once a year in the fall just before winter but if there's little humity in the house, it could be 2x a year and also there would be constant loss of breast feathers ( they will be replaced)due to dry conditions. This schedule applies to a bird who's an adult as your profile says. In baby birds, they have a soft partial molt before they'r 1 yr. Then they have their first major adult molt after that age.
