Is There A Reason My Quakers Foot Started Bleeding?
Carolyn L. is concerned with blood on her Quaker’s feet and wing.
Zachary is a 10-year-old Quaker. All of a sudden he started bleeding on his foot and under his wing. Nothing new is in his cage. He is moving around and eating ok. He seems very calm which is not like him. He is nasty and bitter and talks all the time. Any idea what it could be?

Am I Doing the Right Things With My New African Grey Parrot?
Kristie C. relates,
I am a new bird owner and fell head over heels for the new member of my family, an African Gray named Kesha! She has already brought me a lot of love and LOTS of laughter! I just want to make sure I am doing the same for her. She is flighted. I let her out for a good 4 to 6 hours a day.

Can My Red-Bellied Parrot Return Home Without Issue After A Long Time Elsewhere?
Jean T. relates,Â
I had an 8 year old red bellied parrot for about 4 years. I had to give her to a friend due to a family situation at my house (hopefully in a year I can bring her back home). I would like to visit my parrot but I was wondering if this would be too hard on her. So my question is visit or no visit?

Our 12 Year Old Indian Ringneck Parrot Is Molting
Kathy M. relates,Â
Agni, our 12 year old IRN parrot is molting. We live in California. This one is a big molt, so he looks really scruffy. I’m wondering if there is anything particular in food or supplements that could be helpful. He eats Harrison’s Fine Adult pellets and a variety of fruits and veggies. Otherwise healthy.
Just wondering about your thoughts. Thank you. K
