What's wrong with parrot pecking feathers
Lack of nutrition: Pay attention to the nutritional balance of food for parrots. You can feed more bean feed to supplement sulfur amino acids to help parrots prevent feather pecking.Great breeding density: It is best to have only one pair of parrots in a bird cage to provide the parrot as much as possible to provide a spacious activity space to avoid the psychological depression of the parrot, which causes feathers.Parasites: For parrots with parasites such as mites, lice, etc., we can use the gnaw psychic deworming medicine to repel deworming.
1. Lack of nutrition
Parrots appear frequently pecking feathers, often pecking baldness, exposing skin, and being accompanied by mental tension. These symptoms are usually the manifestation of feather pecking.When the parrot lacks nutrition, especially the lack of sulfurine in the feed, feather pecking will increase.Therefore, when feeding parrots in daily life, you should pay attention to reasonable matching. You can provide more bean feed to help parrots supplement sulfur amino acids and prevent and treat feather pecking.
Second, the breeding density is large
The density of raising parrots is too large, and the parrot does not have enough space in the bird cage, which will cause the parrot to have mental depression and pecking their feathers.It is best to raise only one pair of parrots in a bird cage when raising a parrot, which can reduce the breeding density and give the parrot a spacious space.It is also necessary to ensure that the bird cage has good ventilation and appropriate light. Giving a comfortable living environment for parrots can reduce the occurrence of feathers.
Third, parasite
When the parrot is infected with mites, lice and other in vitro parasites, itching will occur. At this time, the parrot will peck feathers to reduce itching symptoms.At this time, in vitro deworming medicines such as crotching can be used to remove insects to help the parrot suppress or kill the parasite of the body surface. Without itching, the parrot will not peck its feathers anymore.
