Hey guys. So I have a parrotlet who is turning 2 years old this month. He is molting right now, feathers on the floor, cranky and so on. The unusual thing is that he keeps puffing up and sleeping. He hasn't been himself. I also noticed that hasn't been able to fly. Every time he does he just falls. He doesn't seem to be in any pain though. He lets me touch both his wings and doesn't show any signs of pain. I'm worried about him seeing as parrots are very good at hiding their illness. He's never been sick before or not been able to fly. He hasn't had any night frights recently either. I've done a little research but haven't been able to find anything related with molting and not being able to fly. Is it possible that he bruised his wing? He doesn't seem to be favoring any of them in particular. Has anyone ever had anything like this before? He's never been tired/ not able to fly before because of a molt. There are no visible signs on him. Is it just the new feathers coming in?
