After Maccha and Ben making a lot of progress and everyone being impressed with the feather growth they've started plucking again.
Ben has pulled out his tail feathers (after finally letting one grow in and having a few more start growing).
Maccha has started barbering his feathers on his back. He had been doing so well. Hadn't plucked was starting to let his back grow in a little and now he's started barbering. I'm scared he's going to pluck out all of his feathers and become like Ben.
Sorry for the post just needed to vent. I see/read stories about birds who plucked regaining their feathers and everything and then when I see my guys continuing to do it, it makes me feel like I'm not good enough for them. I just want them to be happy and sometimes feel like I can't give that to them.
