molting

My alex is molting, a lot. I'm pretty confident it's not plucking, but he is looking very scruffy. Is there anything specific we can feed him to assist in new feather growth.

So long as he's having a good all-round diet with pellets, some seed, fruits and veggies, he'll do fine. A daily bath is probably the best help you can give, as it seems to soften the skin and enable the new feathers to come in more easily. At least, that's what I've found with my pair.
