My 3 year old Willow has brown feathers coming through. She has always had some but as she ages, there are more. They are mostly on her chest but there are some on her wings too. She generally only eats seeds. I’ve tried every to get her to eat fruits and veggies to no avail. Has anyone else had their birds feather turn brown? She has free roam of the house during the day and goes in her cage at night. 1EEA8D37-F9F0-4B2E-924E-EBB440516D40.jpeg

My macaw gets bronzing now and then (not very often) on a feather or two but they are usually on older feathers that are ready to drop out, I honestly can not see any bronzing on your bird.

Are they growing in brown, or are mature feathers turning brown?

Will she eat any pellets?
