Seems like it.. his chest area has lesser feathers now compared to yesterday.. yesterday was just bald spot around the keel area near the crop which was also what we notice when we got him from the shop..

No he isnt.. our previous cockatoo actually passed away last month.. we only hv just this other cockatoo..
I misread. Sorry for your loss.

Your bird is not plucking (its not really even weaned). It's doesn't even have adult feathers yet. There are many tracts of bare skin on all parrots. The crop and keel being one of them. You're going to see lots of feathers for quite a while.
Thats good to know! So sorry abt this..
