What to do if my parrot is pecking his feathers off his tummy?

Wednesday, September 18th, 2013

I have heard that most parrots peck their feathers off their stomachs. I have seen & heard that you can buy a lotion to stop the pecking, but are there any other solutions to stop the pecking? I love my parrot & I hate to see him peck his feathers. He doesn’t peck all his feathers just his ‘lil tummy feathers & some from his neck. Please help!

I have a macaw that suddenly is having matted mucus eyes

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

I have a macaw that was given to me over 7 years ago and suddenly he is having matted mucus eyes and I do not know what to do.

I do not have a car and am on disability so can not really take him anywhere to see a vet.

I live about 32 miles from the closest town.

He is not a tame bird he is a biter and stresses so easy.

Please what can I do for him?
