Question

My budgie is loosing some of it's fluffs and it is feeling a bit of itchy I think is he alright? What should I do to prevent it?

Angel Alvarado, LVT · Accepted Answer

Bathe or mist him daily with warm water to encourage preening and to promote healthy plumage. If the itching or feather loss worsens, have him examined by your veterinarian to diagnose infection or parasites. Clean and sanitize the cage, bowls, toys and perches. Discard anything that cannot be sanitized. Change the cage paper daily.
