Hi my female budgie who I think is around a year old is over preening at first I thought she may have been plucking but I was watching her and she has been preening a lot more than normal and i haven't seen her pulling feathers out but i have seen some falling and there is getting to be bald spots on her wings and I don't really know what to do

Is she moulting? Do you have any pictures?
I don't think she's molting and she's kinda scared of my phone to take any pictures

I see a cockatiel in your avatar. Is someone else plucking her?
No my cockatiel doesn't like when my budgie goes by her
Actually I just saw her closer and I think she is molting but I thought the feathers grow back right away and there shouldn't be bald spots

When one of mine moults, it looks like he’s balding. He’s my oldest, but I’m not sure if it’s related to age or not.
Mine is only like a year old I'm not sure if anything is wrong or not but I have a vet appointment for her on Friday just to be sure
