So I moved him into a smaller cage (so he wouldn't fall so far when he tried to fly, cuz he really WANTS to!). It's been a couple months now, and still not much luck growing in new wing feathers. He has a wide variety of food to choose from, but mostly likes his soaked seeds the best. I've been using Feather Fast on them for him, hoping to give him a boost. But then he tries to fly, and ends up flopping around the bottom of the cage and beating the poo out of his feathers that were trying to grow back!
He's started going through a hard molt, and replacing most all of his feather now, so I'm HOPING that the wing flight feathers will finally come in. He hates being separated from the rest of them, but I don't dare give him a friend cuz he'll just try to fly more I think.
Has anyone else had anything similar happen with their birds? I'm not really sure what happened to cause this, none of the other juveniles are having any issues like this. Strange....
Thanks,
