please help we worried we doing something wrong...


could this be anything to us taking his mirror off him though we did this over a mth ago , we just put him in a new cage 2day that when we noticed his wings as got him in his transport cage to transfer him over into new cage....

I would take him to the vet first to rule out any health issues, then if there are not health issues then talk with the vet to see if there may be behavioral reasons for plucking. It can be stress, a new place, or anything-but rule out health issues first.
