Helen D. reported
What can be done about our four-year-old Parrotlett dropping his feathers?
Is there a supplement that would help?
We only give him healthy breakfast food—oatmeal, scrambled eggs, a little bacon, and fresh vegetables.
His bird food is Volkman Parrotlett
Thank you
Dear Helen
Birds molt (drop feathers) year-round to replace older feathers. You may notice this more in warmer months.
You can offer a supplement to help with regrowth.
Best,
Catherine
