Hey,

So I've noticed my birds are preening and pulling out what I'd call fluffier feathers (the white ones under there colourful ones) and some of there bigger feathers coming out when flying. Is this just general molting season as spring has come in or should I be taking them to a vet?

This is my first spring with them so curious as to if they need help or this is natural times for this to be occurring

They shouldn't look bald , or patchy . And when they start you can see lots of feathers :).

But if you are worried share a picture of them . We love to see your cuties anyway,,!
