My Parblue Baby Lovebird (age 3.5 month) is facing feather problem. His Tail and flight feather's are going to disturb from edges. I want to know what kind of disease is this and how to recover my baby bird.
Babies are clumsy and tear they're feathers up while learning to climb, fly, use perches...have you had a wellness check? If not, then do,,,tell the vet your concerns and see what they have to say.
This is some fresh pictures of my bird. This baby has 3 other siblings. All other siblings are good in health and feathers. I am giving vegetables and seeds on daily basis. Feather problem of this bird is start just 10 days before and situation is harsh day by day.
The feathers look horrible, and I would be concerned. I suggest an avian vet visit as well. (Just a note on the third picture - that kind of cage bedding can be ingested and cause severe issues with your birdies.)
Are the siblings in the same cage? Are they bothering this one?
You need to have this bird seen by an avian vet. If there are none where you live then any vet that is willing to check the bird. Could be a French moult or not.
Baby is improving day by day. I am using coconut oil with seeds and giving shower daily with some drops of Aloe Vera gel mix with warm water.
Thanks for your guidance.
