Hi Mark. I have a Green-Cheeked Conure. Ive had her for almost a year. The
people I got her from said she plucked her feathers out twice a year. Since
Ive had her she hasnt done it yet. I mist her with water everyday. Sometimes
they pluck their feathers out because there skin is dry. Sometimes its
behavioral. The people I got her from kept her in a dark room all by
herself. So when I brought her home I put her in the living room by the
window and I pay alot of attention to her. Sometimes it can be diet I give
mine apples, carrots, and lots of greens.
Pet Stores carry a spray called bitter apple that you just spray on her.
They also carry a bird bath spray that put the natural moisture back in there
skin, it also brightens there feathers.
IF nothing works you should take it to a Vet just to make sure its not mites
or some medical.
Good luck, hope this helps!
