Re: lovebird is losing feathers,
Posted by Katy on 10/30/06

My female lovebird is plucking it's own feathers out and tends
to be itching more. Could she have a disease? I heard they
pluck there feathers when they get bored or it is psychological,
however it is getting to a point where she has plucked out all
her tail feathers and I'm worried. Any advice? This all has
happened within the last week. Very quick. THanks!
