Getting their vitamins are very important. I have a nanday parrot, and a sulphur crested cociatoo, and they are very healthy.

If medically fine there must be something different that is causing your bird to stress. Also agree that the bird need plenty of toys including foraging toys. Great advice.

They need the warmth at a certain temp. Is this bird going through a molt?? They will lose their feathers for 3 months or sometimes 4 months. At that time they get weaker and need more warmth and more food. I let my conure fly free which helps a lot. We are very bonded to each other and he does not want anything to do with my other 2 conures whom are mating birds. He is very playful and demands my full attention so much that I have to give him a piece of apple on his play area to keep him busy while I do my housework If your bird is losing feathers, is it too cold or too warm?

We boarded my cockatoo at her vets office. She has not stopped itching since we arrived home. I tried lice spray, Also a naturalspray for dust. I have started bathing her daily. I am miles from a vet. Is there anything I can do? Sincerely Jane She is starting to lose her beautiful feathers from all over. I am heart broken. I visited my daughter in Vegas.
