What Can Be Done About Our Four-year-old Parrotlett Dropping His Feathers?

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
