Moving in
Hello,
I noticed that Max has a small spot on her chest that looks like its missinig some feathers. I've never seen her actually pluck her feathers, but she has started to preen way more than I think is normal. She is also itching her head a ton. When I change her cage liner, I see lots of feathers (mostly downy feathers), but all of them are intact and not shredded or broken. Additionally, she has started taking more naps in the day. Spring has begun, which means molting season for birds, but I have not seen a single pin feather on her yet.
To me, it sounds like molting, but what do you guys think?
(I apologise if this is not posted in the right forum, as I am new to the AA community)
