I have a male alexandrine parakeet which is an about a year old. I got it for my mother as a birthday present. I feed him with pulses, grains, dry chilly, rice. He had very less feathers when he was small and then gradually new feathers were coming but after 3-4 month he stared losing his feathers. His tail also doesn't look very fine to me. He has habit of biting his claw and licking his feathers. I live in a town and there is no vet nearby. Please suggest me some easy means to cure him.
Also some parrot owners told me to make him bath with turmeric powder dissolved in water.
