They both found nothing wrong with him. He is nine months old. I got him on Oct. 26,2007 he was fine for about three weeks. His tail wasn't the prettiest when I got him but that was ok. Was fully feathered no signs of liking to pluck at that point. Then all of a sudden started in, he now dosen't have any dark grey feathers except his head. He looks like a bald bird. He just goes thud now, for he hasn't any wing feathers what so ever. Well dah!! he can't reach that area. I got him off the seed diet he was on and now have him on roudy bush, just veggies, tropimix and fresh fruits. He has plenty of toys he can come in and out as he pleases, and I snuggle with him and talk. The last vet put him on prozac daily and then I also spray him down with a water solution of alo vera. I am about at my witts end, at what to do , He had two homes prior to mine. What else is there for me to do for him ? I have a Congo Grey and I have had him to two vets.
