Hello,
I am new to the forum and haven't really found my way around here, but I have a question regarding my 5 month old Amazon named Paco.
I've been noticing that he has been growing more yellow feathers around his beak and face, but what worries me is how patchy it looks atm. He gets feed a pellets seed diet, I just him regularly throughout the day, and has access to any toys or other things he needs. I'm not sure if this is part of a molt or what, but doesn't his skin seem really exposed in the facial area? He is very young and maybe that is the reason for the changing of colors, but I do see more pin feathers around the top of his head and around the nares. Has anyone had theirs go through this before? I also just use mite and lice spray whenever I clean his cage.
