Zebra losing wing edge feathers?

Post by Shasta_man » Sat Aug 15, 2009 11:34 pm

Trying to identify whether there is a problem.

New Zebra female - she has been in a quarantine cage for ~2 weeks.

No noticeable feather loss when we got her.

Noticed that she is losing the feathers on the front edge of both of her wings.

She has been very active. We have a single male and they are thrilled to hear each other and she is trying to find a way to the other cage.
