New baby feather plucked

Post by Jaixion »

I just bought home my hand reared lutino ringneck, he's roughly 4 and a half months old. His head feathers had been pulled out by his mother, and are now growing back in patches. He's still got a few spots with nothing. I'm just wondering will these spots grow in eventually? I can upload a photo during the day. Is there anything I can feed him to help him grow his feathers? Thanks.

Hi there,

Yes they will all grow back in time, feed him a healthy balanced diet to promote feather growth, or if you are really concerned you should be able to get supplements that promote feather growth from your local petstore or vet :-)
