Lady Gouldian molting

Post by hfinney » Fri May 11, 2018 2:08 pm

Hello. I have a pair of lady gouldians, and the female seems to have started a molt. The male has not. So my question is, do gouldians just molt at random times, or do they molt seasonally like canaries?

If they are supposed to molt at specific times, what could have triggered my hen into molting? I haven't changed anything recently (lighting, food, cages, etc.).

Thank you for your insight!

Gouldians moult seasonally, or when they are stressed.
Have a nice day!
