Re: Budgie Started Biting
You can help soothe the little guys discomfort by giving him baths/showers. Using a CLEAN plant misting bottle ( one that has NEVER had any type of chemicals in it) squirt the water up into the air above him,and let the droplets fall on and over him. That could help the sheaths on his pinnys to soften up and make it easier to remove them. If he allows you to touch him,you can put the pin feathers inbetween your thumb and forefinger and GENTLY roll them back and forth to separate the sheaths and help the new feather immerge.
