Hi All,
I just got a 3 month old senegal from a pet store. I have it since yesterday afternoon. Today it started preening it's feathers and started taking out some of her short green (size of my thumb about) feathers. she's taken out 4 or 5 already.
I'm very worried about her now thinking she's got stress and ripping out her feathers due to that. I think she is molting Could that be why she's doing that? She's pretty shy and reserved as well. Probably still getting used to me.
Please help. I'm afraid she may hurt herself.
Thank you
Paul
