After having my little Senegal for 17 years, she has decided to start chewing on her feathers. I have an appointment set up for her on February the 14th. Should I trim the sticks that are sticking up with no feathers on them
Thanks

I'm thinking that, unless the "sticks" are causing more irritation to your bird, you should leave everything "as is" so that the vet will have all of the information to help with the diagnosis.
