Yay new 'Teil!!!!!!!!!!  Reply with quote  

Very Happy I finaly got a new 'Teil.... Im adopting a Female Grey 'Teil from a lady a half an hour away tomarrow!!!!!! Her name is Lucy... but its sorta weird having had a dog named Lucy and now a bird named Lucy so depending on how much she knows her name than I might change it. and I almost adopted a blind Maxamillian Parrot but i think she was already taken. Anyway I got a new 'Teil and a new friend (posibly mate) for Petra!!! Laughing

No its just that when i cleaned his cage out yesterday i noticed a bunch of his breast feathers on the floor of his cage and then this morning when i had him on his playground i noticed more feathers all over the floor of his playground. He doesnt have bare paches but im worried he will soon... how do i tell if hes molting or if hes plucking??
