Pet's info: Bird | Unknown - Bird | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 2 days old
Naomi is fully 8 weeks now, but she's losing her feathers alot. She isn't plucking her feathers they're just falling out themselves. She tries to fly by jumping and flapping her wings but whenver she flaps her wings, her feathers come out. She has lost all of her tail feathers and almost every feather from her wings. This began 5 days ago and she already has lost like 15-20 feathers. She loses approx 4 feathers everyday. Why is this happening? Is this a disease or just a phase?
