Thank you Randy for responding. I was afraid to have hubby go
to him when he is making this sound afraid that it would re-
enforce Keeta to just keep doing it for attention. I will
watch exactly what happens tonight when Jim (hubby) gets home
from work. At that time of day, Keeta is out on a perch with
me in the kitchen while I am cooking. I will report what
happens.

Now while I have everyones attention, ha ha, every October
Keeta picks out the middle of every feather he can reach and
then starts growing them back when we go to florida for 5
weeks in Feb and March. He is full feathered again by June.
We have tried everything, took him to the avian vet, nothing
wrong with him except maybe being spoiled rotton. We tried a
light, we tried a small humidifier, spray baths with aloe,
diet, etc. Nothing worked. I have to think it is the weather
in Michigan, him not getting outside as he does in the summer
on the boat where I live, therefore not getting fresh air and
sunshine. If anyone knows of something I missed trying,
please let me know. He is still fully feathered now and so
beautiful. Would love to keep him that way!
Thanks so much.
Sandie
