JerseyTomater Diamond Enthusiast	Posted Hide Post There are a few possiblities why this parakeet could be loosing his feathers, it could be mites, lice, a nutritional deficiency, metabolic disorder, hormonal imbalances, or he could be plucking out his feathers due stress or boredom. http://home.ca.inter.net/~dhansen/feather.html See - Tips to help birds that pluck their feathers, http://home.ca.inter.net/~dhansen/fethpluk.html
