Hello Fatma........I have had plucking problems in the past myself and they are usually cured by my placing the bird(s) outside where they can get daily full, direct, natural sunshine, as much as they want. I put them in large flights, do not clip them and add a few toys and sometimes a mate or playmate........ The large flights are at least 7 feet long, 4 ft. wide and 4 ft. deep and if I could they would even be larger........I don't know about the weather where you are or the possibilities of you doing that for your bird(s). I would suggest if you do it, put a solid metal roof on the top with overhang, a solid back and sides if possible and a double bottom to protect feet from possible predators etc....Good luck.

Another thing that might help would be giving your bird a bath. Make sure the water is coming from above it's head, not shooting directly at it.

YOu know sometimes there is really no cause that can be detected and sometimes you just have to live with it. Sorry to say. Just accept him for what he is and try to not be stresses around him. They can sense that. Love him for who he is and hopefully it will solve itself!!! I hope!!! Will send some prayers for you and for him!!!

First have you taken it to a vet? there is so many things that can make them pluck I to have a long time plucker (was plucking before coming to me) I'm not saying anyone coused the plucking but I am sure they didn't take her to the vet and let him try to take care of it becouse I took her to there vet. I have lots of things I have done to help but you need to have test done on the bird. That being said Palm oil is very good to give I use it to cook the birdy pancakes I make them with 1 cup wheat flour, 1 egg' 1 tp baking powder (aluminum-free) and apple carrot juice (baby juice)
