So Eros, my sweetheart lovie, will be 10 months old on Saturday 5 November.
He has had small molts since I have had him. He usually eats a lot of him mineral block and cuttlefish before hand.
But this passed week he has been dropping feathers like mad! Everytime he flies he drops one or two feathers and he flies a lot! I have gotten a bit more worried as it isn't just small fluffy ones, they're flight and tail too but more than a few. And he hasn't had any cuttlefish.
These are just a few from the passed couple of days.
I know every bird is different but what is a "normal" molt for a lovebird? How many feathers are too many? We are in Spring so maybe that?
