Was it an avian vet and did they check for other causes?I am owned by several parrots and 1 of my B&G Macaw's who is a rehome now 14 years old they ruled it habitual after 4 years.Not saying that's what it is.Try giving it more bathes and spraying it with aloe vera spray can help.Can it be diet related too?One of my Eclectus is allergic to certain foods so I can't give it to him.Start keeping a food diary and see what happens.I also have a Cherry Head Conure that came to me plucked but there was nothing to be done about her she damaged the follicles.Are you possibly using something that may be irritating it's skin?
